It is easily possible for your eyes tom slip off the road. The Tampa Bay Times claim that it "takes seconds to get your eyes off the road and into a car accident". Therefore, instead of your eyes being locked into your phone, they should be focusing in on your speed, the road, and the traffic. At the same time, your mind can only process so much. According to Goldsborough "the human mind is not capable of texting and driving". Other people have also confirmed that " driving is a one mind chore" meaning that the mind cannot to both at the same time. In addition, your mind need to focus on one thing while driving and that is the road. Thus, concentration is important while driving and breaking that concentration causes a risk for an accident.

Texting while driving can limit your response time to something like a car pulling out in front of you, a child or adult walking in front of you, and other things. Texting someone means that you have to put all of your attention into what you are texting which, so if you are driving and texting at the same time you are bound to miss something that you should have been paying attention too or you can hit something that you should have been paying attention too, like a car, animal or even worse a person. A article called "Texting While Driving" states that texting and driving has become a "prominent social issue, and it's the most hazardous practice that risks accidents to drivers, cyclists and pedestrians". A pedestrian can walk onto the road at anytime but it is up to the driver to pay attention to road and avoid endangering his/her and the pedestrian life.

1 out of every 4 car accidents in the United States is caused by texting and driving. It only takes 1 sec for a accident and I don't think people know that. Some teenagers like to have friends in the car it only takes that one friend in the car to stop you from picking up that phone because you have someone else life on your hands. No, I'm not saying that using your phone and driving is worse then drinking and driving but it's just as dangerous. Teenagers should be careful God forbids but it could be them.

To begin with, driving while using a phone can cause the driver to swerve in and out of lanes. This brings a greater risk of getting in an accident with other drivers around them, that might also be on their phones not paying attention. Additionally, when a driver is looking at their phone that means they are not looking at their speedometer or the speed limit on the road they're driving on. The faster a person is going the more damage that is done to the vehicle, if you went into a ditch, off-road etc. Not only just their car in some circumstances but also the other persons car if they hit someone else.

There really isn't a valid argument to why people should be able to use their phone on the road, because in every scenario its dangerous to them, and the others on the round around them.

In conclusion, using a phone while driving is never going to be on the safe side of things. The risk of causing an accident is too high, due to other people around not paying attention to the road and the person on their phone not paying attention to others on the road. There's no valid argument to say that it is safe to do so, because every opinion thrown out there has a bad side to it. At the end of the day, just don't text and drive or use your phone while driving.

As crazy as it sounds its true people tend to crash more likely while using a device and driving than under the influence. We are so focused on social media or other people texting us that most of the time we aren't paying attention to the road. Even if you're at a red light and you use your phone your still most likely to crash because of the fact of the fact that you're not aware when the light turns green. If you simply cannot resist the urge to check messages or talk on the phone while driving, take the time to pull off of the roadway and park your vehicle before picking up your cell phone.

Since the beginning of modern technology there has always been a debate on the subject of using electronic devices while conducting a vehicle. There are many opinions on this subject, some more elaborate than others. Should people be allowed to use their phones while driving and possibly putting people's lives in danger? Although we can argue that there are many beneficial ways that you can use your phone in the comfort of your vehicle, the debate on whether it should be used at all is the main problem.

Cell phones should be on an hands free stand the same height as the dash board to keep eyes ahead instead of looking down. Over 88 percent of people going on trips use their phone for directions with the phone in their hands. Drivers can no longer have phones "touching any part of their body" while talking through devices, the safety office stated. According to the Georgia State Patrol, officers handed out nearly 25,000 citations to drivers found to be in violation of the law between July 1, 2018 and June 30, 2019. traffic citations are up. Fatal accidents are down. Auto insurance collision claims are declining. But plenty of motorists are still fiddling with their phones as Georgia's distracted driving law celebrates its first birthday. However, teens now are allowed to use cell phones to the same extent as adults under the law. The 2018 Hands Free Law prohibits motorists of all ages from holding any electronic device, such as a mobile phone. It only takes three seconds for a crash to occur after a driver becomes distracted by their cell phone or anything else. Texting while driving is even more dangerous than driving while under the influence of alcohol. 9 percent of all teenagers expect to receive a reply to a sent text message within five minutes. Brake reaction speed can be slowed by up to 18 percent when someone is texting while driving. Holding a phone in one hand while navigating a vehicle slows reaction time by 46 percent. Texting while driving is more of a problem now than ever, as 69 percent of U.S. drivers between the ages of 18 and 64 admitted to using their cell phone while driving during the previous month.

To sum it all up, Most car accidents occur because the person at fault was occupied by their phone while operating their vehicle. People are not focused on the road, So people can easily drift away from your lane to another lane and can cause an accident not to only one person but to other people's lives. The reasons why cell phones should not be used while driving are because of two- second distractions. Meanwhile, most drivers still use cell phones while operating their vehicles. Many people use their phone to text,talk and check social media. This is why I think drivers should not be able to use cell phones in any capacity while operating a vehicle because you're focused on the road.

People cannot 100% pay full attention to the road and full attention to their phone, statistics can prove that. In the article "Cell Phone Use While Driving Statistics" by Teen Drivers Source, it states that "Cell phone use behind the wheel reduces the amount of brain activity associated with driving by 37%. This quote proves that people cannot evenly multi task while driving. Even if people think that they can do it, it is scientifically proven that it is not possible.

In the article "Texting and Driving Accidents Statistics" by Edgar Snyder and Associates, it says "Nearly 390,000 injuries occur each year from accidents caused by texting while driving." This means that thousands of people are injured each year by irresponsible drivers. Also in the article "Texting while Driving" by Matt Robertson, he states that "Many people have died as a result of other people texting while driving." Being a responsible driver does not only affect one person, but it affects and endangers everyone around them.

Using a cellphone and driving in today's society is becoming a serious issue. Some people don't understand how bad things can get just from one text or call back. If people cannot change the way they do things now, then later on in the future, society could become a bad or more dangerous place than it already is.
