By City News Service Apr 1, 2021 WOODLAND HILLS (CNS) - Nearly 90% of drivers believe that people who use a cell phone behind the wheel pose a danger to others, yet 53% admitted doing so and 45% admitted to sending, reading or receiving a text message, according to survey results released today by Farmers Insurance. Gen Z and millennial drivers surveyed also admitted to participating in video chats (32% collectively), posting to or viewing social media (28%), playing a game (27%) and streaming video (24%) while behind the wheel, suggesting younger drivers could face continued driving distractions as technology continues to evolve. “It's understandable that today's drivers feel a conflict – people know that phones, and the distraction they introduce, pose a risk and can interfere with safe driving. However, phones can be tempting and pull our attention and focus,'' said Carolyn Wald, head of product innovation integration for Farmers.
