1.) Being from Connecticut and knowing the accidents that happened around my by texting drivers I do agree with the banning of texting while driving. This helped a few in CT because it been a while since any accidents have accord. I don't think there should be an age ban because a lot of older people are beginning to text and drive, which isn't a good example, but it happens.
2.) This connects with the article because the drivers who are texting are engaging in a conversation which is the same as talking on the phone. Also the drivers use their hands to text and to hold the wheel, which would be difficult and distracting because their eyes aren't on the road.

Well I guess that the ban has been effective in CT. I agree that more people are texting no matter what their age. You are correct about the connection with the previous week's assignment. A distraction is a distraction no matter what it is.
ReplyDeletei agree
ReplyDeleteText messaging should be banned for everyone, regardless of age. Using a cell phone while driving in general is a distraction.
