About this episode

This episode discusses the impact of smartphone distractions on driving with expert Dr. Dan Glaser from General Motors.

The smart phone could be the most distraction inducing device ever created by man. When you mix that with driving a vehicle, you can get disastrous results. This episode I’m speaking with Dr Dan Glaser, General Motors Driver Distraction Engineer and expert in human-computer interactions to talk about the psychology of distracted driving and what GM is doing to lessen the urge to drive distracted.
