How does Gen Z use their phone while driving?
According to the survey, 64% of Gen Z users use their mobile phones to play music, and 54% use their devices to get directions.
“Regardless of how often Americans are driving, staying focused behind the wheel is one of the most important things any driver can do — for their own safety and everyone else’s,” Sean Burgess, Chief Claims Officer at Lemonade, told the outlet.
“We all get tempted by distractions, but it’s clear younger drivers who were raised with technology at their fingertips are navigating that with growing awareness,” the leader added. However, the survey also found that Gen Z drivers are more likely to drive even when tired.

“Younger drivers are redefining what it means to be responsible on the road,” Burgess continued. “They’re not just open to tech-enabled insurance — they expect it. From using telematics to unlock better rates to embracing connected features that promote safer driving, Gen Z is showing that modern insurance should meet them where they are: mobile, mindful and data-driven,” the leader added.
