Distracted Driving Index Declines 12% and Now Stands at 15.8%

SmartDrive Systems, a leader in fleet safety and operational efficiency, released the Q4 2009 SmartDrive Distracted Driving Index of 15.8%, a 12% decline from the Q3 level of 17.9%. The SmartDrive Distracted Driving Index is a quarterly benchmark of the commercial fleet driving distraction rate, and provides fleet safety professionals with an ongoing measurement of causes and trends in driving distraction to help them put safer drivers on the road.

Increased national focus on distracted driving, with new state and federal regulations, helped fuel a decline in overall commercial driver distraction rates, SmartDrive says.
