Calling, texting, and searching information while riding a motorcycle: A study of university students in Vietnam.

CONCLUSIONS: Mobile phone use while riding a motorcycle is highly prevalent among university students. Educational programs should focus on the crash and economic risk of all types of mobile phone use while riding, including calling, texting, and searching information. In addition, they should consider targeting the influence of social norms and peers on mobile phone use while riding.
