In conclusion, teens are not the only ones who get distracted by use of their cell phones.Many adults are in this category as well.When an individual gets behind the wheel of a 3000 pound vehicle, he should think about how many lives can be affected. If one is really responsible, he will turn off the phone until he has reached his destination.

Drivers might be texting, on social media, or even facetiming.
While traveling at 55 mph, the five seconds used to answer that text is the length of a football field. One hundred yards is enough time to run into a car or into a pedestrian. Even pedestrians are 4x less likely to obey crossing laws. No matter how fast you can text a lot can happen in a few seconds.

The newest phone costs around one thousand dollars. That means, its just a minor inconvenience to pay the fine on electronic device that are attached to us. Maybe if fines were made steeper people would think twice before using their cell phones behind the wheel. Fines could be used for driver education, safer walks for pedestrians, and safer roads.

Should drivers be able to use cell phones in any capacity while operating a vehicle?
Having to take responsibility for a car accident you caused by using a phone while driving is devastating, but having to take responsibility for the death of someone due to this, is much worse. Lives can be changed instantly. A family of five can be singing along to "Let It Be" by the Beatles, and in a matter of seconds, on any verse, a distracted driver hits them from behind going 70 MPH. A crash of that magnitude can leave devastating results.

We can avoid issues like these on a daily basis if we all become more considerate of others and ourselves. Yes, the use of cellphones is a lot more prominent nowadays than it was 20 years ago. Communication has become much easier, but your life and the life of others matters a lot more than a simple call or text.

Including the fact that 94 percent of drivers would support the ban to stop driving while texting and 74 percent support an ban on hand-held cell phone usage.
Laws such as Hand-held Cell Phone Use Ban, All Cell Phone Ban, and Text Messaging Ban are put in place to prevent crashes and a drivers distraction from the road. The Hand-held Cell Phone Use Ban is in
16 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands prohibit all drivers from using hand-held cell phones while driving. While the Text Messaging Ban is in 47 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands ban text messaging for all drivers with Missouri prohibits text messaging by novice or teen drivers. So States like Georgia, Louisiana, Washington, Oregon, and Maine have it were you will get fined $100-$500 for break these laws. But states Alaska and Utah can fine you $750-$10,000 or even one year of imprisonment.

Most of these laws are created and being enforced so that someone won't put their life or lives of others in danger.
In conclusion, cell phone shouldn't not be used while operating a vehicle. It could be very dangerous and lead to death so that's why laws are put into place.

In a time where technology is so mainstream and more accessible than ever before, it has become essential to many people in their everyday life. Technology is everywhere and it will only continue to grow, however not everyone is as tech savvy and just stick to the basics like a cell phone. One of the demographic groups that has a heavy usage on cell phones are teens, who are constantly glued to the screen for countless of hours. Another thing that teens are really big on is getting behind the wheel for the first time and many tend to continue their bad habit of using a phone even when driving. This has quickly become a serious issue for teens and it should be addressed to prevent any more dangerous situations.

Everyone has the habit of occasionally looking at their phone to either send a reply to a message or to just skip to the next song, so we can't just point the finger at the teens. Although, teens are more prone to this behavior due to their constant need to use a phone than compare to an adult. Based on a survey conducted by GuardChild, 56% of teens admitted to talking on the phone while driving and 13% admitted to texting while driving. That is a total of 69% of teens, who are distracted while they are behind the wheel.

For someone who is beginning to learn how to drive, it does not help out when you provide your own distractions. Driving is a serious responsibility that is not something to be taken lightly by younger drivers, no matter how casual it may seem.

Being distracted by your phones divides your attention, which should be completely on the road to be as fully aware as possible. People are very aware of the issue dealing with driving under the influence and strongly stand against that, but in fact driving while using a phone is just as bad. According to the statistics provided by GuardChild, using a phone while driving causes a decrease in reaction comparable to legal limit of blood alcohol concentration of 0.08%. A driver should not be behind a wheel if they are incapable of maintaining full awareness of what they are doing and their surroundings.

Based on research done by the National Conference of State Legislature, 48 out of the 50 states, have passed laws that prohibit texting while driving and 18 out the 48, have no usage of handhelds while driving in place. However, not one state has an all cell phone ban in place, which could possible change in the future if current laws don't seem to be the solution. With these laws, driver receive fines that could cost them hundreds of dollars and could even lead to a suspension of license if drivers continue to repeatedly offend.

Have you ever wondered about the dangers of operating a phone while driving? Should people be able to use a phone while driving a car? Will there be a future of using phone while driving? There is a great percentage of drivers that use their phones while driving a car. With many opportunities to use a phone while stopped at a red light or stuck in traffic, phones have been a danger to many people.

Using a phone while driving a car is very dangerous. Most car crashes are caused by drivers scrolling through social media, taking pictures, looking at navigation, or searching for music (Evans Moore). Edgar Snyder & Associates states that "There are about 1.6 million car crashes a year just because the driver is using their phone." Those car crashes that occurred are all because of drivers attempting to use their phones. Our smartphones are a great resource to have and use but are a major risk to our lives if used at a wrong time and place. Phones should be used before starting the car and used after getting to the desired destination.

"According to the report, cell phones caused 26 percent of car accidents in the U.S. in 2014. Text messaging causes 5 percent of crashes (Bey & Associates)". Using the phone makes the driver's main focus go from driving to what is on the screen. The reckless drivers cause car accidents and that can cause major injuries. Some of those injuries can cause permanent damage while others are small injuries.

I am pretty positive that there would be a future of using phones and driving. Even though there are many laws that say using a phone while operating a car isn't allowed people still do it on a daily. There are many states that have already banned the usage of phones while driving. "18 states, D.C., Puerto Rico, Guam and the U.S. Virgin Islands prohibit all drivers from using hand-held cell phones while driving. All are primary enforcement laws-an officer may cite a driver for using a hand-held cell phone without any other traffic offense taking place (GHSA)

For instance, if there happens to be a car crash and someone is injured and if you have your cell phone then you can call for help. This can reduce the number of people getting injured and they can be sent to safety faster. Also, when you call for help and you happen to not know where you are, the police or whoever can track your phone and locate where you are and you will be able to receive, help. Even with this new technology, most cars have a method called "hands-free" and you are able to call, text, and navigate while keeping your hands on the steering wheel at all times. that is why Getting help quicker and easier is top priority for someone who just got into a car accident, and cell phones can make that happen, and how the hands-free method reduces these risks.

Today with the new technology parents are able to track their kids with just one touch. If something were to happen to their child and the parent does not know where they are, they can track their phone and it tell them where they are. For example, there is an app called life three-sixty and this app allows the parents to see where their children are going, how fast they are going, if they run a red light, are speeding, etc. This app is very crucial when it come to a parent looking out for their kid. This app almost helps the parents because they feel a sense of comfort, knowing where their child is at.

As long as you don't pick up the phone while driving, or go down to look at it. You are safe and put yourself at a lower risk. Things like having a GPS helps you navigate where you are, and can locate you for emergencies, as well as the parents feeling comforted knowing where their child is with one touch at their hands. Having a cellular device in a vehicle is safe, however it is up to you whether you want to put your life at risk when picking the phone up.

Americans in the world are using cell phones in every hour of their lives. Cell phones allow connection with the world. However, it is now considered more fashionable to carry a phone and less about what benefits cellphones actually offer. Cell phones offer multiple characteristics (in addition to communication) including cameras, TV games, texting, music, social media etc.

Drivers can easily lose focus on the road and switch lanes without noticing what they are doing because their eyes are not on the road. Therefore, it is not safe for to use cell phones while driving because kids will grow into teens and think it is cool to use their phones while driving because their parents did it. There have been more accidents with teens than ever before. Phones take your attention from the road and you can endanger citizens. The greatest disadvantage of using cell phones while driving is that it distracts away from the road.

In my state of Georgia, there is a new law called the hands-free-law. The hands free law says texting while driving is banned. Also, drivers cannot use hand held devices when driving. Therefore, drivers should not be able to use their cell phones while operating a vehicle. Since this law bans the hand-held usage of electronics devices while running a vehicle, drivers should use hands-free devices. Some hands-free device options include: blue-tooth devices and or GPS devices.

In closure, I believe that drivers should not use cell phones while driving. Using a hand-held device and driving isn't safe for the driver, other drivers, or even nearby civilians. Using a hand-held device takes more effort while driving than having a hands-free device. When driving, you should not have to multi- task. While driving you need to concentrate on the road. However, you cannot focus on the road if you're trying to use your phone at the same time.

If your vision is occupied by your phone then you can't possibly pay attention to the road. Therefore if you eliminate distractions then all of your focus and attention can go towards getting to your destination safely. When it comes to car accidents i'm sure most of them were caused by distraction by the phone. Phones while driving just isn't a good idea.

which can lead to various things. If everyone is no longer paying attention to the road then everyone is in danger. Studies already show that more car accidents are caused by cellular device usage then anything else. Phones can always be accessed so there shouldn't be a hurry.

. If your hands are on your phone when you need to stop or swerve out of the way you won't be able to do it to the best of your ability because your hands were full. Being able to swerve fully under your control could be the difference between life and death. Lets keep our hands on the steering wheel and eyes on the road.

In conclusion, using a cellular device is no no when it comes to getting behind the wheel. There are much better things to do when in a car. For example listening to music occupies some people when their driving. Other than that keeping your focus on the road should always be the main focal point when driving. If people feared the consequences then they would be less likely to do it. But as it stands now people don't fear it and that's why they do it with no problem.

In the passage "7 Reasons To Stop Texting And Driving. Is any text really more valuable than a life?" by Gabi Levey it states how "innocent people; young children, friends in your car, pedestrians, and fellow drivers, did absolutely nothing wrong and are forced to have their lives at risk solely due to a poor decision that you made"(2). Which means that one person's life can be taken away from them even though they have not done anything all because another person decides to pick up their phone. It also states in that same passage how the "simple action of "answering a quick text" or even glancing at a text, means that you are selfishly putting other people's lives in danger"(Levey 2). Which also means that even one little answer to a text can cause someone to lose their life or almost lose their life because people want to be selfish and answer a message that can wait. Due to others wanting to be selfish can cause one or themselves to lose their life.

In the passage "7 Reasons To Top Texting And Driving" by Gabi Levey it states how "fines and punishments for texting and driving range greatly depending on the state that you live in; for some states, the fine is merely $20, however, in others, it can be up to $500"(8). Which means that if someone were to get caught using their phone while driving, they would have to pay at least twenty dollars or even five hundred dollars for their fine. It also states in that same passage that "if the action of texting and driving ends in injuring any other individuals, you can actually end up in jail, depending on the severity of the injury"(Levey 8). Which means that if someone were to get caught texting and driving will possibly go to jail. Any action that a person decides to do with their phone while driving will cost them.

In the passage "7 Reasons To Top Texting And Driving" by Gabi Levey it states how "portraying to them that it is okay to text and drive is only going to lead to them making the mistake and risking their lives in the future"(7). Which means that if a person is texting while driving around that child then they're going to think it's ok so they are going to want to do it. It also says in that same passage that texting and driving "portrays an awful example to them!
Children pick up on a lot more than we think they do"(Levey 7). In that case we should always set good examples around children due to the fact that they pick up on almost everything we do and we don't want for them to pick that up as a bad habit.
