Driven to distraction 
Distracted driving may not get the publicity given to alcohol, drugs and speed, but it 
is thought to play a role in one third of fatal and serious injury crashes on roads. And 
while there is strong community opposition to drink drivers or people who speed, our 
attitude towards making phone calls or reading text messages is much more relaxed. 
Surveys for the Office of Road Safety have found that while 96 per cent of people believe 
reading and sending text messages is distracting, 54 per cent admit reading texts and 
35 per cent have sent them while driving. About 85 per cent of people think mobile 
phone use is distracting but 46 per cent said they take calls on the road and 36 per cent 
concede making them. 

Alcohol, drugs and speed cause more crashes on the road than distracted driving. 
How many crashes are caused by these factors? Is it more or less than distracted 
driving? 

People are more tolerant of drivers who speed. What does 'tolerant' mean, and how is 
this expressed in the passage? How do we feel about people who speed? Which drivers 
are we more tolerant of? 

People like to use their mobile while driving because it is relaxing. Does the passage 
mention relaxing? Does the passage say that using a mobile phone is relaxing or not?
