Entitled “Global Driving Safety Survey”, the Liberty Seguros study took into account the responses of 5004 Europeans and 3006 North Americans, reaching the conclusion that Portugal is among the European countries with more risky behavior when driving.
With regard to mobile phone distractions, according to the study, the Portuguese (50%) are only behind the Spanish (56%) and far from countries like France (27%), Ireland (25%) or England ( 18%).
With regard to driving at excess speed (in situations of delay), Americans are among the most studied drivers (51% admit to doing so), followed by the French (44%) and the Portuguese and Irish ( 42%).
