Driven to Distraction:  On Purpose!  Distractology and Saving Lives

GLOUCESTER (Radio and Video interviews) Distractology is what Arbella Insurance likes to call the science of distracted driving. With Distractology, you’ll get schooled on how to become a safer driver by learning to avoid and ignore distractions on the road.

Sponsored by the Arbella Insurance Foundation and created based on research conducted by the Human Performance Lab at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, Distractology creates better, safer drivers with a driving simulator and follow-up online Challenge.

Jerry Ryan is the Eastern Insurance representative as Eastern is sponsoring the program at Gloucester High School this week:
