Around the world, more than 3,000 people die daily due to traffic crashes. In Canada, traffic crashes result in 2,500 fatalities and 15,000 serious injuries every year. Distraction is estimated to cause 13 to 50% of all crashes. In-vehicle devices such as smartphones raise additional concerns regarding driver distraction. However, these devices also have the potential to improve safety by informing drivers of risky driving behaviours or upcoming roadway events. This research will compare traditional and emerging in-vehicle technologies (e.g., smartwatches) with respect to driver distraction as well as their potential to improve safety when information content is driving related.

在世界各地，每天有3,000多人死于交通事故。在加拿大，交通事故每年造成2 500人死亡和15 000人重伤。据估计，分心导致了13%至50%的撞车事故。智能手机等车载设备引发了人们对驾驶员注意力分散的额外担忧。然而，这些设备也有可能通过通知驾驶员危险的驾驶行为或即将发生的道路事件来提高安全性。这项研究将比较传统和新兴的车载技术（例如，智能手表）的驾驶员分心以及它们在信息内容与驾驶相关时提高安全性的潜力。
