Dan Glazer, General Motors driver-distraction engineer, on the rising toll of distracted driving

Dan Glazer, a driver-distraction engineer with General Motors, joins the WPTF Morning Show to discuss new federal data showing more than 3,200 deaths and over 315,000 injuries tied to distracted driving. Glazer says cell phones are only part of the problem, with long glances away from the road, rubbernecking and rummaging inside vehicles sharply increasing crash risk. He outlines proposed hands-free legislation in North Carolina and offers practical steps for drivers to prepare before they start the car, limit distractions and maintain situational awareness behind the wheel.
