Mobile phone use on a bicycle: frequency, user characteristics and potential dangers

Whether a mobile phone is used when participating in road traffic by bicycle also depends on the age and gender of the cyclists. This was the result of a study recently published by the Federal Highway Research Institute (BASt). With the results of extensive traffic observations and interviews, a basis was created to specifically increase road safety for cyclists in the future.
