Do distractions affect accidents suffered by cyclists?

Correct answer

Yes, distractions on the part of the cyclists themselves are directly related.

Cyclist distraction and inexperience are the causes of most accidents suffered by bicycle riders. Among other measures, they should avoid using headphones, GPS devices or mobile phones, carrying out dangerous overtaking manoeuvres, or talking to other cyclists travelling alongside them.
