Talk about a highway to hell.

New research has found that people who commonly text and drive are concerningly associated with psychopathic behavior.

The new data — from interviews with nearly 1,000 German drivers, about 73% of them women found a shocking 600-plus participants, or about 61%, admitted to “problematic” use of their devices while driving.

Along with connections to fear of missing out and anti-social behavior, problematic smartphone users (PSU) evoked three negative traits known as the “dark triad” — narcissism, Machiavellianism and psychopathy, which unrelated research also recently connected to drivers with deliberately loud cars.

“[Problematic smartphone use] is an excellent predictor regardless of the Dark Triad personality traits,” the study authors wrote, adding a potential prescription for addressing the issue.

“Since this factor can be changed more easily than personality, PSU should be targeted in public safety interventions, driving training and court-mandated medical-psychological assessment of driver fitness.”

The research team also proposed other ways to curb the habitual use of cell phones.

“It might be a good strategy to help people reduce their PSU in everyday life, which should indirectly decrease the chances of using their phones on the road and prevent accidents and fatal crashes.”
