The answer is true. Distraction "latency" lasts for about 27 seconds.

This means that even after driver put down the phone or stop fooling with the navigation system; he or she isn’t fully committed with the driving task. Talking on a cell phone and texting are frequent what people associate with distracted driving, but there are so much more activities behind distracted driving.
