Look at government statistics on accident reports ! Texting while driving doesn't simply 'bother others' - texting while driving KILLS PEOPLE ! And I speak from experience !
Texting while driving is very dangerous and should be outlawed.
Not very different from texting while driving. If it isn't it should be.
91%
Because texting while driving kills people ! Not just the driver - but innocent pedestrians, passengers and other road users !
Oregon I don't know but it should be banned in every state. Texting while driveing is ignorant and about as stupid as putting on makeup while driving.
no, you should not text while driving. when you try to concentrate on the phone and on the road you get confused and lose control
Because - if you're driving you should ONLY be concentrating on the road! Texting takes your attention away from the task of driving - leading to lapses in concentration that could cause an accident or possibly even kill someone else or yourself.
Absolutely NOT ! Pay up and learn your lesson !... Far too many people are KILLED by irresponsible drivers texting while driving. You either drive the car - or use your phone - not both at the same time !
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 !
No one should use cell phones while driving. Cell phone use while driving has been shown to cause as many accidents as drunk driving, even when hands-free devices are used. Texting while driving is even worse.
If people are texting, they are not going to be listening to the teachers. They may also distract others who are watching them or who hear the student that is texting laughing or speaking to someone or showing them the text. This is a distraction for the class and for the teacher, so students should not text during classes.
It is common sense for everyone in the world to be safe and cautioned about anything that is happening on the road. So that means no texting while driving eyes on the road and hands on the wheel.
