Resumen

La conducción distraída es uno de los factores humanos más importantes en la seguridad del transporte y, por ende, es un riesgo que se está convirtiendo en una creciente preocupación para la seguridad vial. La investigación establece que el uso del teléfono celular puede ser la fuente de distracción más importante para los conductores dentro del vehículo, dado que su uso añade demandas cognitivas, físicas o visuales al conductor hacia una tarea secundaria que desvía la atención de las actividades críticas para una conducción segura y, por tanto, puede afectar negativamente el comportamiento y desempeño del conductor. El objetivo de la presente investigación fue estudiar los efectos de las distracciones debido al uso del teléfono celular en las respuestas del conductor durante la tarea de conducción y su vínculo con la ocurrencia de accidentes de tránsito. Los resultados sugieren que el uso del teléfono celular, independientemente de las tareas y modalidad utilizada tienen un efecto negativo en el comportamiento y desempeño de los conductores y, por tanto, los usuarios que usan el teléfono celular mientras conducen corren un mayor riesgo de estar involucrado en un accidente de tránsito, principalmente los conductores mayores y los jóvenes, siendo estos últimos los que están sujetos a una mayor exposición y altos riesgos ante esta distracción.
