'Deadliest Distraction' While Driving Are Mobile Phones

Mobile phone use is the biggest cause of road fatalities, found in a new poll.

An AA poll of 18,000 members has shown that out of nearly 7,000 people, who admitted losing concentration, 548 reported a near-miss and 106 had crashed, and the biggest cause of the distraction was mobile phone use, the Daily Express reported.

Official figures suggest that mobile phones pose the biggest accident risk to drivers as they get carried away by messages, tweeting and taking calls.
