Approximately 49 states in the United States have banned texting while driving . 21 States prohibit all drivers from using hand-held cell phones while driving. There is a law called "primary law" where a police officer can ticket the driver without the need of any other traffic violation. Another law is called "Secondary law" an officer can only issue the ticket if the driver was pulled over for another violation. In some occasions Judges can consider texting while driving a reckless driving and can even sentence you. Some of the consequences are getting fined , getting points off of your driver's license and Higher Insurance Premiums.

Would you ever drive the length of a football field at 55 mph blindfolded? Well that's essentially what you're doing when texting while driving. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, texting behind the wheel takes a driver's eye off the road for an average of 4.6 seconds, which is the time it takes to go from one end zone to the other. Dangerous? Incredibly. Deadly? You bet.

In that same survey, more than 90 percent of drivers know texting while driving is dangerous. So why are we still doing it? Experts believe we compulsively check our phones because every time we get an alert on our phone our brain sends out a signal that makes us feel happy. Drivers are saying they continue to do this because it's a habit, like to stay connected and it makes them feel more productive.

Over the past decade, technology has been deeply integrated into our lives to the point where we couldn't live without it. One of those technologies is our phones. Phones are constantly being used; from texting and talking to watching movies and playing games. People are constantly using them and it seems like you can't go anywhere without your phone. Because of this, there's been a dramatic rise in car accidents caused by phone distractions. States have passed laws banning cell phone use while driving, however, this really hasn't achieved much.
There are still many people looking down at their laps instead of looking at the road.

"1 out of every 4 car accidents in the United States is caused by texting and driving."(Snyder). A survey done by CBS News found that "98 percent of motorists who own cellphones and text regularly said that they were aware of the dangers, yet three-quarters of them admitted to texting while driving..."(Ap, 1). So even though most people are aware of the dangers, why do they continue you to use their phones while driving?

In the article, they said, "drivers believed they can "easily do several things at once, even while driving"."(Ap, 3). Most of these drivers honestly believe that they are competent enough to use their phones while driving but despite all their confidence, texting while driving is still "6 times more likely to cause an accident than drunk driving"(Snyder, 1). In a survey conducted in 2014 about 28% of the people surveyed said, "they are worried about missing out of something important if they don't check their phones right away."(Ap, 9). Another group, "believed that others expect them to respond to texts "right away"."(Ap, 10). And a small percentage believed that they are, "addicted to texting"(Ap, 11). For most of these people, it seems almost impossible for them to put their phones down for even a second.

While on the road it is never safe to text, even while at a stoplight. "Stalling to text could lead to rear-end crashes if the other drivers notice the light turn green first."("Texting At A Red Light", 5). Almost, "28% of all automobile accidents..."(Ryan, 1), are caused by rear-end collisions.
This is considered one of the largest categories of car accidents in the entire United States. One of the most common causes of rear-ends is distracted driving.

Most people believe that they are skilled enough drivers to be able to drive with distractions, but that's just not the case. This ignorance has caused thousands of people to lose their lives every year. You are more likely to die in a car accident than a plane crash, and that's because of how easy it is to be distracted while driving. Imagine a loved one being involved in a fatal accident because a driver was on their phone. It would be devastating. Phones have become such a huge part of our daily lives, and we should be able to utilize them in order to help better them. The bottom line is, they have the potential to cause a lot of damage when they aren't used appropriately and they should not be used while driving.

1 out of every 4 traffic crashes that occur in the United States are caused by cell phone usage. Each day 11 teens die from a result of texting and driving. Even AAA reveals that 94% of teens acknowledge that they know the dangers of texting and driving and 35% admit to doing it anyway. Should we be able to use our cell phones while operating a vehicle?
How can we drive for others when we won't drive from ourselves?

Teens between the ages 16 to 19 are more likely to be involved in a fatal car accident than any other age group. I think teens in that age group are afraid of missing out or (FOMO) basically the desire to stay connected with what others are doing at all times.

A subconscious habit that causes drivers to feel the need to know what other people are doing constantly. Texting while being behind the wheel takes the drivers eyes off the road for 4.6 seconds which is the same amount of time it would take to travel the length of a football field.

As of July 1st of 2018 Georgia Governor Nathan Deal passed a law prohibiting the use of a handheld phone while driving. The Hand free law first conviction is a fair $50 fine and 1 point assigned to their driver's license. Second conviction fine is a $100 and 2 points added to driver's license. You can receive jail time if you are a continuous offender. I do believe that the consequences of violating this law is fair and should be complied by.

Over 90 percent of crashes are the fault of drivers. The most frequent driver mistake is "recognition error," which encompasses driver's inattention, internal and external distractions, and inadequate surveillance." In other words, most crashes are not caused by flagrantly intoxicated people, nor that driver who will do whatever it takes to get to their destination one minute earlier. Most crashes are caused by people like you and me who think they can pay attention to the road and do something else at the same time. When you are engaged in conversation, be it on a call or texting or even with someone else in the car your attention is divided.

Texting while driving is a real life situation and more people are at risk by the minute. Of course some people may not care about the effects of them texting while driving but other people do. Being patient and waiting to send a text could save many lives. It starts with you. Take a stap and save lives.

Cell phones have become increasingly prevalent in the 21st century, made even more popular by the introduction of smartphones. Having access to the internet on demand has led to people being more informed but also made driving more dangerous. Many drivers nowadays drive and do many other things, usually on their smartphones. Texting and driving is almost always looked down upon but talking on the phone and driving is still seen as ok. Distracted driving kills over 1000 drivers a year and 600 pedestrians a year. These numbers could be cut down on if drivers were encouraged to just figuratively 'disconnect.'

Many smartphones apps have taken up the mantle to send messages telling whoever is messaging the driver that they are behind the wheel. This is a great solution to keeping drivers, both teenage and adult, eyes on the road instead of on their phone. These apps may just be the future for smartphones and driving. Another good solution for distracted driving is teenagers should be encouraged to take a step back from electronics every once in a while in order to do something else, like read a book, or spend time with family

Educators could certainly spread awareness about the dangers of distracted driving ("Distracted Driving," NHTSA). The few and far between presentations about distracted driving a year help some but there could be some more awareness outside of school. Maybe advertisements and the sort. Advertising got adolescent smoking down from 9% to just 5% before the popularization of Juuls and Vapes. Why can't that be done again?

By encouraging disconnection, people won't be as liable to pick their phone up in general, causing less distracted driving. Getting awareness out makes not just teenage drivers, but also young adults and older people aware of the dangers of driving.
Distracted drivers oftentimes don't wear seatbelts either causing even more undue deaths. With just a little more effort, distracted driving could be a thing of the past.

Although cell phones haven't been around for the longest time, they have become an essential part of our lives. Cars and other vehicles have become great assets in daily life as well. Combining the two, however, is a terrible idea. Texting and driving is extremely dangerous, and leads to nearly a million and a half crashes per year. It switches the focus from the road to your hand, and makes you a weapon, capable of easily ending someone's life

As humans use social media chemicals in their brain are released, these chemicals are called dopamine, and in humans it's what makes us decide we like whatever we're doing, thus a habit is formed. This habit if not controlled can lead to constant checking of a person's phone, including when in the car, which could lead to catastrophic accidents and even death while on the road. This and the added distractions of potential passengers could create an even more dangerous environment.

The same chemical mentioned earlier is released when you play games, it's what makes them entertaining, and for some people it makes them need that one last level on Candy Crush or to complete that one last quest on games like Clash
Royale. Some people decide to do this when driving, once again endangering their fellow drivers, as well as any passengers in their car. This helps prove the point of smartphone use shouldn't be allowed in the car because there have been plenty of car and motorcycle accidents due to this. The more people want to do something, the greater the release of dopamine is when their craving is finally fed.

People who have low attention spans as well as people who like to pay more attention to the video rather than the road are more likely to crash than someone who just plays music from their phone in the car. The reasoning behind this is simple, a music video is more likely to be watched than someone simply opening a music streaming app and playing the song. Other people like to watch movies or just normal YouTube videos adding to the risk factor. This all leads to the hands off law.

In most of these states, you can be pulled over and cited for texting as a primary offense. Distracted driving very dangerous. In an older time there was no problem with this, Therefore as I said in my introduction that it is indeed my generation who's careless driving cause the law of no texting and driving to be made. Not to mention if you get pulled over the driver may obtain a monetary fine which can range from as low as 20 or 500 dollars depending on the state that is.

Almost 390,000 injuries happen each year, from accidents caused by texting while driving. One out of every four car accidents in the United States is caused by texting and driving. That's a lot of deaths caused by loss of focus you would think people would learn. Just a little to add, but according to NHTSA, driving while texting is six times more dangerous than drunk driving. Read into it my people.

Driving already is dangerous because of all the imperfections we carry. We need to be alert at all times because if we lose focus for a bit that portion of time will ruin a life.

We have fatalities and injuries being born from use of phones while in a vehicle that is in motion. There may be a wide array of factors that go into causing a wreck it's understandable.
Your focus is what allows you to react to a sudden situation, if and when you lose focus you may meet a surprise motorist that wants to say hello. Anything that is done will upset someone while satisfying another. Improvement MUST be made at the basic level of human thought if we are to increase safety of drivers.

The best outcome is to reduce the reason to be on the phones and say no to this addiction.
As technology improves and grows we need to grow with it. Focus on one thing at a time so you may live your lives with less stress.

Thousands of accidents happen every year, and a high percentage of them involve distractions, on either end of each driver involved. Adding phones to the risk only increases the chances of crashing. D.U.I is a lead cause of accidents, but it is safer than texting and driving, statistically.

Many deaths and injuries are caused by simple mistakes. The risks are extremely high and only increase as new drivers appear on the road. Phone-related accidents have become common since 2010 (Zebra pg.1) and are even more of a risk forward from then

In fact, 1.6 million crashes on average per year are caused by phone use while driving while 390 thousand injuries are caused by these crashes and 3 thousand deaths are averaged between them respectively. (Edgar synder and assc. pg.1) The amount of people that are distracted while driving is even higher than the accident rate, with surveys conducted having an average of 30% of answers admittedly stating distraction while driving is common for these drivers. Unfortunately, watching Netflix, youtube or other streaming apps while driving is something done regularly, which is extremely dangerous to other people around them. It is 8 times more likely for a crash to occur when reaching for any object while driving, and even eating and drinking increases the risk by 3 times. Eating and drinking while driving is much more common than watching streaming apps. However, recklessness like that causes many accidents, which could have been avoided by being responsible.

1 out of 4 accidents are caused by texting and driving, which means other hand-held phone use causing accidents is entirely too dangerous considering it can have an 8 times more likely chance of causing accidents than regular driving respectively.

With the 400 percent increase of not looking at the road, using a phone isn't the best idea. Thousands of accidents that happen even without distractions are the same level of lethality, which would warrant thinking twice before reaching for your phone. That is the theory, at least. Hopefully, there will be a way to show these drivers that the risks are far too high for a miniscule benefit of texting someone back immediately. Proper education on the dangers of distracted driving and how easily losing your life could be is important. Help others around you and warn them what could happen.

Life is precious, and losing it over texting back or looking at an email is not worth it. The risk is very high and thousands of people who had their lives ahead of them have been put down, when it could have been avoided. Statistics do not lie, and ignoring the risks will not end well. Study and research on these accidents is done for a reason- they keep happening. Living is more important than texting. Even laws can't protect you in the moment where the accident is going to occur. If you don't personally text and drive, you must still worry about others who refuse to cooperate. Encourage others to wait to text back if you want to save lives. Don't use your phone and drive.
