As an everyday routine Abby wakes up like any other day. She turns off the alarm clock, then drags herself out of bed wishing it was already Saturday. She Jumps in the shower and rushes out because her clock was thirty minutes behind and they had called asking if Abby was coming in for work. As she says yes she on her way to the salon she has this really bad feeling in her stomach. Even though she doesn’t know what’s in plan for her today and tragedy that’s going to happen to her. Abby jumps in her car, hair still drenching wet and coffee in her hand as her phone starts to ring and vibrate constantly for all the appointments that she had scheduled with her clients yesterday. As she shouts “OK, I am on my way”, she takes off in a hurry turning at a stop sign, but forgets to make a complete stop and she tries to cut in front of this man and realizes she almost lost her life right there. Keep focus Abby as she whispers to herself, just go to work and then start the day. As Abby is driving down Main Street making a left turn on to the interstate a white jeep makes a stop in the middle of the interstate and the same lane as Abby’s. Abby tried to hurry up and make a complete stop before smashing in to the rear of the jeep, she finally stops and her phone flies toward the bottom of the floor. Struggling to grab it before she exits off the interstate and drive without crashing, she thinks she would make it on time before she gets to the yield sign; she grabs it with her fingertips. …show more content…
Finally, she pops up and just passes the sign and thinks no one is coming and as she turns, an eighteen wheeler comes and smashes right into her and makes her car flip about five times and eject her from the window. By the time the paramedics come to give her C.P.R. it’s already too late to bring her back to life. Once the parents were notified and asked what happened the officer says “we don’t know for sure miss all we know is what the guy told us in the eighteen wheeler”. Finally, a car behind Abby saw what happed and came forward and told once it was Abby’s turn to turn she had seen Abby reaching for something and then saw her trying to hurry up. As Abby stood up she automatically started texting a client saying only five minutes away, then that’s when the car behind Abby seen her get hit by an eighteen wheeler. Sadly, when the officer told the parents what caused her death his exact word were, “her cause of death was that she was texting while driving”. So “live life to the fullest because it only happens once” you never know when you can pass away. This research paper is discussing how to stop texting and driving, banning phones and if phones are more important than your life. Teens are always causing the deaths when it comes to car crashes. By being distracted by twitter and other social media. About 80% of people argue that it is dangerous to text and drive. But still checks their emails and text messages. Whenever the whole world should agree on stopping people from texting while driving. Especially teenagers because they are the main people that have trouble ignoring their phones whenever it begins to ring and beep. And are probably the people who always end up making the wreck happen. Evidence to support this idea is “people admitting that its dangerous to text while driving, but still it’s a behavior that people cannot shake off” as Boweman, Mary said. That’s why we need to make a really big difference and make a stop this big situation before it gets bigger. Is banning texting while driving really going to make a big difference, and should banding be in each state. About a year ago my friend was telling me that a week before we got out for summer 11th grader was walking to the parking lot and she was on her phone. Well when she was walking a car also was on his phone texting while driving and smashed right into her. Maybe if he was not oh his phone he wouldn’t have hit her and if that girl was not texting to she would have seen that car coming towards her. My point is that there is a reason why we should band phones until you at least get to your destination. Or this can be you or someone you love. So we are trying to make a stop and start banding phones around stop signs and when you’re at a red light and also school zones. Texting while driving is a very dangerous thing to do while driving it takes a person to be a non-distractive driver on the road to cause an accident. If a person is on the road and is texting while driving, it’s very hard to concentrate on the road the glancing at your phone. Evidence to support this idea is “texting while driving is the most dangerous thing to do while driving a moving a vehicle. Said Abouk, Rahi and Adams, Scott. It’s been said that texting and driving causes more people to crash or have an accident, then drinking and driving. That’s why this needs to come to an end cause every day we get kids that get their driver’s license and they already have to start tweeting about it or taking a picture in their new car and then they automatically have a speeding ticket. So they are trying to put a very strong message out there to stop and if phones are more important than your life. Like how they always have them sayings on a build board sign saying “was that text worth it?” which means was that text messages you sent more important than your life. Teenagers are not the only people that text while drive, mid age grownups also have to glance at their phone every five minutes. So we teenagers are not the only ones who are causing crashes it’s also grownups because they have the same reaction we do. “A seventeen-year-old is now charged in the July traffic accident that took the life of a father and his young daughter”. If a teen is driving without a license and is driving and causes a crash and kills someone should they be charged with capital murder of course they should cause, they shouldn’t be driving period if they don’t have a licenses. Parents should also listen to their kids whenever the kid is telling them to get off of their phone because they are probably concern for their life too. Do parents if your child is driving without a license don’t let them take your car and drive around. So the writer of this is trying to say not only to teenagers but to grown-ups don’t you want to live another day well take care of how you drive or else you’re not going to live another day. Why people get so easily distractive from driving whenever they hear their phones vibrate or even ring. People who are so easily distractive are called distractive drivers which they always have to be looking at themselves in the mirror or continually texting someone and calling people while driving. Texting while driving can cause about 4,000 deaths and nearly 450,000 injures every day. Some people might think that when driving is not a hard task but it is when driving you have to have complete focus when you’re on the roads and focus also on other drivers so there is no reason for you to glance at the phone or say that you can multitask because no one can do that while driving. The evidence to support this idea is “it seems so common scenes to not to text while drive, but people are so connected to their electronic device that they kind of forget themselves” Says Harsha. Mom’s cousin was on his way from El Paso to come to the lake where we were. So they had been driving vary long so him and his wife would take turns to drive when it was her turn she was texting her mom saying that they were almost in San Angelo and she would call her when they did get there. Well once she said that before she knew it she had flipped the car over the bridge and caused the car to crash not only that but flip of the highway. So when that happened her husband was ejected from the car because he was a sleep he didn’t have his seat belt so he was ejected and the wife and child we not cause they had their seat belts. Stating is that people need to be more focused on the roads and what they are doing and also not be so focus on the phone get on it once you need to put gas or at a rest area. So that’s why mom’s cousin the one that was ejected his wife is in jail not only cause she was charged for texting while driving but also for killing someone she loved very much. The reason why we should go against this is because this is killing a lot of people just for one little text saying yes or no or on my way.
This research paper is discussing how to stop texting, banning phones and if phones are important then your life. We can all make a difference by stop texting while driving and making it not legal to be able to text or even lift it up and once a cop sees someone text needs to hurry up and pull them over and give them a
ticket.
