Does raise some interesting figures, when you consider the distraction rates, even if they were 50% out are still shocking.

That's a bit of an exterme interpretation, given that you would be stned or drunk for the entire ride, but normally only using your smartphone during a short period of that same ride.

Nevertheless, the numbers paint a pretty clear picture of how bad your attention is influenced while using the (smart)phone.
