HAMPTON ROADS, VA—As travelers hit the road for the holidays, they need to be aware of some less common distracted-driving behaviors. Most know texting and talking on the cell phone are risky behaviors, but nearly 3 in 10 drivers have a near miss because of distractions like eating and drinking in the car while driving.

The Travelers Institute also found that younger drivers are even more likely to engage in high-risk behaviors, including recording or watching videos while driving.
