Qld teens taking selfies while driving

One in three Queensland teens has put their lives at risk by taking a selfie while driving, a new study shows.

The RACQ survey of 2000 Year 12 students also found almost 40 per cent had been in a car with a drink-driver.

The RACQ is using the findings to promote safe practices among young drivers, including putting their phones out of reach in the boot when they get behind the wheel.
