ID Number		2093
Study Type		Human / Provocation
Model		Mobile phone use while driving and analysis of reaction time
Details		Human subjects (n = 27) were tested for reaction time in a real driving environment while operating a mobile phone. The authors report a correlation between call duration and increased time required for braking response, especially if the driver had already been driving for longer periods of time. Distance between cars did not have a significant effect on reaction time during the braking response.
Findings		Not Applicable to Bioeffects
