10/13/09: This past week, the Secretary of the Department of Transportation announced new research findings from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) that show nearly 6,000 people died in 2008 in crashes involving a distracted or inattentive driver, and more than half a million were injured. The findings were announced during the kickoff to the two-day Distracted Driving Summit, highlighting the under-recognized dangers of distracted behavior behind the wheel. More than 800,000 vehicles were driven by someone using a hand-held cell phone on any given day in 2008.
