Sexual activity while driving fits the definition of distracted driving because it involves the diversion of attention away from the driving task. However, this risky driving behaviour has received little attention compared to other distracted driving activities. To address the lack of research on sexual activity while driving, the internet was searched from April to June 2020 for media reports in which sexual activities occurred within the cabin of a moving vehicle, taking specific note of: gender, the presence of others, time of day, use of substances, the nature of the circumstances surrounding the incident, and whether crashes had occurred. A total of 106 unique and verified cases were identified from 2004 to 2020. The reports involved 76 male (71.7%) and 30 female drivers (28.3%), and there were 43 (40.5%) serious incidents that involved a crash and 23 fatalities (21.7%). In 17 (16.0%) incidents their vehicle hit another car, and a pedestrian or cyclist was hit in 3 (2.8%) incidents. The risk of a serious incident was higher during oral sex or intercourse than solitary activities (i.e. masturbation). A total of 63 (59.5%) mild incidents (without crashes or fatalities) were identified, in which reports included accounts by witnesses or police regarding sexual activity while driving. Given the potential seriousness of incidents, this topic deserves further research to better understand the prevalence and safety implications of sexual activity while driving.

驾驶时的性活动符合分心驾驶的定义，因为它涉及将注意力从驾驶任务转移到其他地方。但是，与其他分心的驾驶活动相比，这种危险的驾驶行为很少受到关注。为了解决对驾驶时性行为的研究缺乏的问题，从2020年4月至2020年6月在互联网上搜索了媒体报道，其中涉及性行为发生在行驶中的车辆的机舱内，并特别注意：性别，其他人的存在，时间每天的使用情况，物质使用情况，事件周围环境的性质以及是否发生了撞车事故。从2004年至2020年，共鉴定出106例独特且经过验证的病例。报告涉及76例男性（71.7％）和30例女性（28.3％），其中43例（40。5％）涉及撞车和23人死亡（21.7％）的严重事件。在17（16.0％）起事件中，他们的车辆撞在另一辆车上，行人或骑自行车的人在3（2.8％）起事件中被撞。在口交或性交中发生严重事故的风险高于单独活动（即手淫）。总共发现了63起（59.5％）轻度事件（没有撞车或死亡），其中的报告包括目击者或警察关于驾驶中性行为的陈述。考虑到事故的潜在严重性，该主题值得进一步研究，以更好地了解驾驶时性活动的普遍性和安全性。在口交或性交中发生严重事故的风险高于单独活动（即手淫）。总共发现了63起（59.5％）轻度事件（没有撞车或死亡），其中报告包括目击者或警察关于驾驶中性行为的陈述。考虑到事故的严重性，该主题值得进一步研究，以更好地了解驾驶时性活动的普遍性和安全性。在口交或性交中发生严重事故的风险高于单独活动（即手淫）。总共发现了63起（59.5％）轻度事件（没有撞车或死亡），其中的报告包括目击者或警察关于驾驶中性行为的陈述。考虑到事故的潜在严重性，该主题值得进一步研究，以更好地了解驾驶时性活动的普遍性和安全性。
