Percentage of how many accidents are caused by cellphones?
Cellphone causes an average of 1.4 million car crashes every year, of those 200,000 crashes are due to text messaging here is the link that have other reports and numbers related with this topic http://www.datashelves.com/how-many-car-accidents-are-caused-by-drivers-who-are-texting The problem is that these numbers are ESTIMATES; in most cases, people won't admit to texting or emailing on their cell phones during an accident. And simply TALKING on the phone is associated with only a minor increase in accidents. This blends in with the entire subject of "distracted driving", where the distraction is anything that takes your attention off the road; changing radio stations, yelling at the kids in the back seat, reaching for a soda or a snack, going to sleep or "zoning out" while driving; these are all part of the same problem. I've seen many women applying their makeup while driving, and many men who shave while driving.
How many people get in car accidents by texting?
Even one is too many ! If you're driving a car you have no business using a mobile phone !! There should be a GLOBAL BAN on using a mobile while driving. You either drive the car or use the phone - not both !There should be much stiffer penalties for anyone causing an accident while texting. Here in the UK - offences range from 'driving without due care and attention' to 'causing death by dangerous driving'. Pesonally I'd like to see anyone killing a person because they were texting while driving, charged with at least manslaughter !
