I’m not sure there is any one answer but I think I would start with education. Anti-littering campaigns haven’t ended littering but they have certainly shifted the public mindset around litter, I think distracted driving is going to need to be treated the same way.
I agree, it’s the key to the fix.
I think driving lessons, licensing and road safety should all be part of high school programs.
campaigns to "focus on driving while driving" have already been running for 15 years here.
Education for driving and responsibility on the roads should really be starting in school and part of schooling programs. It’s probably one of if not the most important skill we learn and it’s one of the biggest killers, much of that through lack of responsibility.
We need to start running it through high school, as part of schooling. It could even be used to incentivise staying in school.
