Abstract
Distractions while driving account for about 68 % of all accidents (Dingus, et al., 2016). This is shown by a study from traffic researchers at the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute (VTTI) in Blacksburg. According to this study, especially distractions which include looking away from the road are the most dangerous. For example, the handling of a mobile phone increases the probability of an accident by a factor of 3.6. Consequently, the overall number of accidents in Germany has increased by 12.6 % since 2006 (DESTATIS, 2015).
