When you choose to text and drive, you're threatening every single driver around you and placing more value on that text message than yourself and your fellow drivers. You tend to check your phone so much which can cause you to crash with someone else. But also take the focus of your surroundings while driving. It takes your focus away from safe driving. One single text can make a blink of an eye change your life of someone else's life. Also when you're engulfed in a texting conversation, it's easy to forget you're sharing the road with other people. It also takes your hands off the steering wheel to answer one single text.

You get pulled over and get a ticket. But also if caught many times can cause those digits tickets to go up which means big money tickets. It can also rise in auto insurance rates. It can lead up to prison time as well .Is it worth risking your freedom? More so, is it worth the emotional damage a car accident causes to everyone involved? Also it leads to getting your license suspended. The consequences you'll face for texting and driving are similar to those you'd get for another one of the most serious driving offenses which is a DUI.

Sending or replying to a text requires that you remove at least one hand from the steering wheel so that you can grip your phone and thumb in a reply. So not only are you multitasking and not focusing your eyes from the road, but you're also trying to deftly use your phone with one hand while at the same time steer your vehicle. So not only do you risk crashing with other vehicles but also losing the steering wheel which is the control of driving the vehicle.

Being able to use a device while operating a vehicle shouldn't be allowed. It brings too many risks and changes to the environment of driving. There would be a lot of accidents on the highway due to having access to a device while driving. Would you want a family member or friend to be on the road with someone so oblivious to the traffic around them? Remember, every time you get behind the wheel, you're entering a shared experience with mothers, fathers, friends, and children. It is every driver's responsibility to always be careful and attentive, ensuring everyone can safely get from Point A to Point B. Which is why driving with a device on your hand shouldn't be allowed.

At least one out of every twenty drivers will use a phone while driving a vehicle. Even the use of hand's free phones is not any better. The use of a blue tooth is dangerous in my opinion. "Texting while driving is six times more likely to cause an accident than driving drunk." (Edwards 1) If you even use a simple text it can take your eyes off the road for a few seconds. "Of all cell phone related tasks texting is by far the most dangerous activity." (Edwards 1) Teens who text while they drive spend at least ten percent of their driving time outside of the lane they are in.

A one minute text or even just being on your phone is not worth your life or anyone else's. According to "Bran Law Firm", Almost 200,000 people die from fatal injuries every year. This is equivalent to about one person every three minutes. National averages report about 37,000 crash-related fatalities every year. This breaks down to about 101 deaths per day in the United States. When you are driving a vehicle your main goal is to focus on the roads, and everything going on around you.

Amongst accidents, an average of nine teens ages 16-19 are killed every day from motor vehicle injuries. 2,739 drivers ages 15-20 are killed and an additional 228,000 are injured in crashes. A total of 4,054 teens between the ages of 13-19 die in car accidents. 81% of teens killed in car accidents are passengers. There are many ways to prevent Teen accidents or accidents in general. Enrolling in driving school, it creates great practice from someone who has amazing driving skills. Don't ever drive drowsy, being sleepy can impair their judgment, vision, hand-eye coordination and reaction times as much as alcohol and drugs. A study by AAA and the National Sleep Foundation found that individuals (regardless of age) who've slept two hours or less within 24 hours shouldn't be driving at all, and four or five hours of sleep in 24 hours will still leave drivers "substantially impaired."

On Instamotor it discusses 5 best gadgets to comply with hand-free driving. One gadget is "Scosche Magic Mount". These very inexpensive mounts are available in a variety of attachment methods, from adhesive dash mounts to windshield suction cups, to adjustable arm mounts, and more. The best part of the Magic Mount is that it uses strong magnets to securely hold any phone to its surface. We've road-tested these mounts ourselves over thousands of miles and find them to be plenty secure even over rough roads. Despite the firm grip, the Magic Mount is typically small and unobtrusive, so it won't look like a small robot is trying to steal your car when it's not in use.

Another useful gadget is called the "Motorola Roadster Pro In-Car Speakerphone". If you really don't like the idea of having to pull your phone out of your pocket or purse every time you get into the car to secure it to your dash or windshield, however, and you don't have Bluetooth hands-free calling integrated into your car's audio system, there is another class of gadgets that will serve you well: the two-way Bluetooth in-car speakerphone. These devices typically clip to your sun visor, though some mount to other locations, and act as a traditional office speakerphone, except that they're linked to your cell by Bluetooth, and they're in your car.

To conclude, always pay attention to the road and do not use your cell phone. If you do so try having something that can easily attach to the glass window especially if its a phone call, try putting your phone on do not disturb next time you enter your car, and always remember that a text that can be sent in seconds it not worth death. How do you think you would be able to drive a car, focus on the roads, and still be able to use your phone

Despite these consequences, people are still fixated on their phones that are dangerous to not only the driver but also to other road users. According to the recent road statistics, more than 22 percent of fatal road accidents are caused by teenagers using their cellphones while driving. Also the distraction of the roads is cause by teenagers who have confidence that they can text or be on the phone while driving. Over more than 5,000 people have died last year due to texting; these accidents are mostly caused by young adults of the age 21 and under.

Laws that were banning texting while driving will save many peoples' lives. With it being that more than 5,000 people died in the last year caused by distracted drivers. It's very important that the government should take stricter action to try to decrease the deaths caused by theses distracted drivers. It is necessary for the government to enact unifying laws and stricter punishments for those who text while driving.

On the other hand, these news laws need to ban texting while driving for everyone not just for young adults, because it has similar effects on everyone who does it. There should be objection to laws for texting while driving. I feel as if each states needs to have similar laws against texting while driving. For example. Massachusetts laws on texting should be a role model for all of the other states. Massachusetts has the strictest laws on road safety. Punishment for those found texting while driving should be so stiffened to push people to dig deeper into their pockets to pay more. The fine alone is enough;

For example You can be arguing with somebody on the phone and not see that the light turned red and keep going and a truck come and hit you. Arguing while texting can get you into a really bad situation also. While texting you will take your eyes off the road and just like that somebody can cross the street or you can run into something. If the call or text is urgent just pull the car over so you can reply or answer and nobody gets hurt.

Your brain can tell you to do one thing at a time and when you try and do both, you panic and that can cause a crash. Both driving and texting needs concentrations so when you try to focus on both your mind gets overwhelmed and you crash. Once you get in the car just put the phone away and out of sight. Focusing on the road is the main key on the road than texting.

Texting and driving is also against the law so unless you wanna pay, put the phone away. Put the phones away because you can hit anybody loved ones and actually kill them and you wouldn't want the same to happen to you. Putting the phones away is saving one life at a time.

Phones play a key role in people keeping in touch with one another and accomplishing daily goals and reminders at hand. Driving is a complex task that requires your full and undivided attention, which is a reason why phone use while driving is illegal. In reality, you can make an exception to certain situations when it comes to phone use while driving. These exceptions include emergencies whether it be family or work related, and life of death situations. GPS so people can efficiently and effectively get to and from unfamiliar destinations.

These calls may be work related if you have a on call job. For example, being an on call doctor you would need your phone no matter the circumstances if the hospital needs you. There are other emergencies like if your child was calling because he/she were to be stranded somewhere. Phones may be needed for all types of emergencies.

In conclusion, we use our phones in many ways while operating a vehicle. We use these cellular devices if there is an emergency. Cell phones can get you to and from unknown places. Additionally, they can also remind you about things throughout the day. Therefore, cell phones should be used while operating a vehicle.

For instance, accidents caused by cellphone usage leads to big pickup trucks or cause company trucks to drop loads on loads of equipment leaving to great money loss. This can also make a big financial deficient if the truck was hit now we have to pay for damages. This can also lead to bad news if the operator is hurt. If the goods that the driver is haling is damaged or broken that can lead to more money to replace the loss of the haul. The highest price we pay for car crashes is in the loss of human lives, nonetheless, auto industries make steady improvements in vehicle safety over the last several decades but in the year 2014, nearly 32,675 deaths were documented.

In my final judgment, I suppose we can drive safly on our roads without having accidents. Yet I do know that the nature of a human being makes mistakes throughout there lifetime and in those types of situations should be resolved in a courtroom. Furthermore, people who don't follow the law of not texting while driving should have the permits suspend, but we all know that too much of a hassle to deal with. But we need to keep our selves, community, and people protected from harm's way to avoid these types of situations.

The reason why people are using their phones while driving because of the psychological aspect. Not only adults doing it also teenagers are driving and using their cellphones and driving too. The young adults had got to the point that they have to respond back to a text or a call, that they need to learn that a long-awaited response from a text or call does not mean rejection all of the time. The average time people eyes are off the road while texting and driving is a total of 5 whole seconds. In just one second, something could happen

Is it really that important? A text is not more important than your own life. So, what is you lose you job or your boyfriend/girlfriend or an interview, there is always a better job and lover, but no such thing as a life that's better than yours. Just one look can change everything. States in the United States are making laws that prevent you from having your phone in your hands, lap, or chest. While texting while driving is illegal in 47 states, its hasn't stopped some drivers from doing so. Not only are they putting their own life on the line, they risk others too. So, the next time you coming from work, late night, in your feelings, texting your ex how you want them back, blasting Marvin's Room and Jungle by Drake, just remember that you can't get your ex back when you aren't able to walk or worse deceased.

Since when was texting your friend more important than living to see them again. Some don't even text they just scroll on Instagram to see what's happening. If we still had flip phones and no touch screen people would just answer a call which is better but still risky because you take your focus off the road. Texts aren't gonna kill you if you don't text back, your mom will understand.

but only few have made it illegal to have your phone in your hand or on you body while driving. The state of Georgia, July 4th, when they in-forced that law they racked up more that 35,000+ tickets in one day and that says a lot. If every state did the same, they would most likely accumulate one million 500 thousand tickets in one day. That's a lot of lives on the line, but people act as if they are masters of texting and driving. Little do they know.

I bet if the world was ending most would even know unless they saw it on their phone, but by the time they knew it would be too late. Phones are one worst cause of death due to the lack of attention to everything else on this earth.

Look, your phone isn't your life remember that. Not everything revolves around it. A kid want to live to use a phone and drive a car, how about you put the phone down and give them that chance. If you don't have a chance with that girl, don't ruin somebody else's. You phone is always there, and that text might be too, plus you can always get a new phone, but you can't get a new life on earth. Put the phone down and live you life to the fullest, not to the shortest.

On the other hand using devices while you drive if it's your job is acceptable. Driving people around such as Uber and Lyft is an exception because you have to be on your phone for directions. Being a business owner or a lawyer is very difficult because you have to able to answer your phone.

Being on a device while operating a vehicle is very dangerous. You shouldn't do it. It can lead to death in worst scenario. It can be stressful to families and victims. Texting and driving the number one cause of death by accident. In some cases it is alright to use them, but you shouldn't be on them all the time.

The number of fatal crashes caused by cell phone distracted driving in 2017 was 434 ("Facts and Statistics: Distracted Driving"). The amount of fatal accidents from the use of cell phones while driving has only gotten worse through the years. Ever since cell phones have become more advanced and more popular, the danger has increased. It is hard enough to stay focused while driving but phones make that task 10 times as difficult. Even something as simple as changing the song or answering a text for a split second while driving can put yourself and others at risk.

Teenagers are not as experienced drivers and think that driving is a task they can take with ease. Although driving might come easy for some, that does not give room to be distracted. I personally witness cell phones being used on the road daily. My mom and my dad both use talk-to-text while driving and my boyfriend holds his phone in one hand while driving with the other. My friend and I almost got into an accident the other day because she was using her phone. Nowadays society is far too attached to technology, especially phones. Not only are teens learning that using phones while driving is acceptable from their parents, they also think that breaking the law is nothing to stress.

In mosts states it is illegal to even have your cell phone in your hand let alone be using it or talking on the phone while driving. If the law is not enough to persuade people to stop using phones while driving, the dangers of killing people should. Close to five thousand people died due to cell phone related crashes in 2018 (Texting and Driving Statistics 2019, thezebra. com).

If they look away from the road for even one second and become distracted, they could crash into another person. There could be children in the car that die from the crash, or a pregnant woman. Lives are constantly at stake while in the car, being distracted only makes things worse.
