On a list that WhistleOut put together this year, Montana is ranked all the way near the bottom, at #48 out of 50. The only states with worse distracted driving problems than us are Alabama and New Mexico. That's definitely not a stat you want to find yourself on the wrong end of - the survey was collected with data from the National Highway Traffic Safety Association, in addition to studies from Zendrive which show the percentage of time people were observed driving while using their phones.
