The United States Department of Transportation has announced the second National Distracted Driving Summit, which is scheduled for September 21, 2010, in order to bring together key parties on the issue of distracted drivers on the streets of the United States, identify opportunities for national anti-distracted campaigns, and try to get drivers to put down their distracting devices. Great news for America’s freight trucking professionals that have to deal with distracted drivers on a daily basis on the transport roads of the United States and a problem that needs to be addressed.
The United States Department of Transportation will once again be leading the talks on distracted drivers that will be taking place at the second National Distracted Driving Summit and long haul professionals on hand will be tasked with working hand in hand with United States Secretary of Transportation Ray LaHood on building on last year’s event.

This year’s summit will also discuss things like the current research being conducted on distracted driving, the technology currently being employed and coming down the road, new policies that might be implemented, public outreach programs that could be put in place and enforcement practices that could be useful in this battle.
