What measures would you use to gauge the success of a social networking promotion designed to get people to try a new consumer product?

Question 2

In 2011, over 3,330 people were killed and 387,000 people were injured in auto crashes involving a distracted driver. Additionally, 40 of U.S. teenagers report being in a car when the driver used a cell phone in such a manner that it put the passengers at risk. Do you think that more needs to be done to discourage the use of cell phones and smartphones when driving? If so, what additional actions could be taken? If not, why not?
