Summary: As the police departments in the U.S. get tougher on drunk drivers, some drivers find different ways to stay high while behind the wheel by using prescription pills and marijuana. A new report says drivers are nearly as likely to be high on pot or pills as drunk on alcohol, and it urges states to take steps to better monitor and control drugged driving (Schmitz, 2015). The states and federal government are working on figuring out the policies on recognizing high drivers and punishing them accordingly.…

Cell phone distraction makes drivers less aware of their surroundings such as pedestrians crossing the road to children getting off the school bus with a stop sign.

The use of cellular devices while driving is now illegal in some states. This is due to the fact that when drivers behind the wheel of a car their only priority should be to drive. While driving and on a phone at the same time a driver is going to be distracted, and when drivers are distracted they are more likely to cause or be involved in an accident. Although it may seem entertaining and fun, driving while using a cellular device can lead to major problems. For example, driving while on a handheld device will lead to distracted driving.

Over the years cellphones and driving have both seen many changes. Both of these things have had major changes most people look at all the changes as great, but if the two are put together the outcome is not so great. Studies show that car accidents involving cellphones are one of the leading causes of death of women under the age of thirty-five (Moore). More and more people are using their phones while driving; not knowing they are putting not only their own lives in danger but also the lives of other drivers. There are those few people who do not use their phones while behind the wheel, but they have probably witnessed someone else doing it. There have been many laws passed in different state making it illegal to use phones while behind the wheel. Texting while driving is a growing problem for drivers everywhere it is time for states and people to have regulations and laws, because there are not enough states with laws on texting while driving.…
Texting and driving is a distraction no one can afford. Lives can be changed forever due to texting instead of paying attention to the road.

Ever been stuck at a light behind somebody who is not paying attention because of their cell phone? It's annoying right. Well that might not be a problem anymore. Many states have banned the use of hand-held devices while driving. Knowing about all the people that have been killed in accidents involving cell phones, I one-hundred percent agree with this law. Using your cell phone while driving can lead to lack of focus on the road, especially among young drivers who are not as experienced as their adult counterparts. Driving takes an extreme amount of concentration, due to the many things that could happen on the road. From cars slamming on brakes in front of you, to people cutting in and out of traffic, you need to have your undivided…
Accidents happen everyday on the road. Some are from bad weather conditions, others are because the driver is under the influence of alcohol, and many are caused by distracted drivers on their cellular phone. If people were more aware of how many people are injured or killed by someone who was using their phone while driving , then they wouldn't use their own phone while driving. If making a law that says it is illegal to use a handheld phone and drive will make people stop becoming distracted while driving, then it should be put into effect. A solution for a driver who wants to use their phone while driving would be to use the hands free option on their phone, or to purchase a tool to hold the phone while driving.…
Even though a lot of places in the United States are completely illegal to use the cellphone while a person is driving, there is still a lot of states in US where this rule is not applied, and it has been very dangerous for the drivers. Most of young people between the ages of sixteen and seventeen specially, text while driving, making them pay more attention on their phones than the road, which is not a mature attitude. Most of young drivers do not know how bad a car accident could be until they get involved into one. If a person is using the cellphone while driving, it just shows that the person is giving more attention to a electronic device, than paying attention on the street while conducting a heavy and big vehicle on movement, eventually causing an accident most of the times.…
Many people get hurt daily because of either them or someone else using their phone while driving. I think driving while using a handheld cell phone should be illegal. Three main reasons I think this is because sending a text while driving can cause many injuries or fatalities, having a phone in the car with someone is very distracting, and the use of a cell phone in the car with someone is not needed until they reach their destination. First texting and driving can cause a collision where not only the person at fault gets hurt, but an innocent person could possibly get hurt or even killed because of one simple text. Many people argue saying it was not their fault or it was an accident that the crash happened. Although it may have been an accident, it could have been avoided completely if that person…
There are numerous distractions at can be made to disrupt drivers. Being on a hand held cell phone would be considered an inside vehicle distraction, so that means it can be controlled. I believe hat it should be illegal to drive while using a phone because it distracts drivers from the road and makes the roads unsafe. Although some believe it should not be illegal, actually it should because driving and being on the phone is one of the main causes for death and accidents in the United States. While driving, if someone looks at their phone for more than three seconds it doubles the chance of getting into an accident. A driver on their phone may not have their eyes on the road, so they might not see an important road sign and end…
