University of Pennsylvania62 enrolled

Overview

Way to Drive is a smart phone-based driving telematics application. Research participants are invited to download the app, which uses phone sensors to track driving behaviors including mileage, hard breaking events, and handheld phone use while driving, measured as the phone screen being unlocked while the phone is in the hand and the vehicle is in motion. Before the study team launches a clinical trial using the app, the researchers will test its capabilities and reliability.
