This article was important to respond to because if they make a law then it should keep them foucus. My view for this article is that most people text while they drive and lose lots of focus on texting and instead of driving they are killing innocent people by texting. This effect the society badly because its injuring and killing innocent people just because they make the stupid mistake of texting while driving. The solutin is to stop texting while driving or get sum one else to drive and the state need to make a law for texing and driving. This is one of the dumest thing a human can do simply because when you are driving you need all the focus you can get so you can consentrate on the road. Most americans text while the drive to talk to friends, girlfriends, coworkers, teachers, and all other nown people i am really glad that they are trying to make a law so people can start getting fined for their stupid actions that they make while texting they lose lots of focus on the road and most of the time that ends up as a reck. If you can not react at a certian rate then yes you will reack because you are texting in stead of driving why text and you can just talk on the phone they have a bluthoot.

2. Shocking Stats on Texting While Driving
Shocking texting while driving. Most people who have phones and love to text feel that they can drive and text. I feel that driving and texting are one of the most dangerous thing you could possible do while in your car. I have seen so many car wrecks from people on there phone or having some thing to do with there phone. Some people feel that they have the upper hand because of the phone but don’t let the phone be the one have you to loose everything over some little text message. My cousin has a phone an he feels that cause he has a big truck an a new phone he can just run thing. Until one day we were driving in his truck and was texting and I told him that texting and driving don’t go. So he told me not to worry about him and to leave him alone, so just as we were turning the corner he looked down and hit the wall of a building. So I feel that having to drive and text is one of the most dangerous thing to do in your life time and if u can’t wait until you sit down. Then you don’t need neither one

TEXTING WHILE DRIVEIN

I DON'T THINK THAT IT IS OKAY TO TEXT WHILE TO DRIVEIN THAT CAN CAUSE A VERY BAD WREAK NOT ONLY THAT IT CAN CAUSE YOU TO GET TICKETS ITS NOT COOL TO DO IT I HAVE A SISTER THAT LOVE TO TEXT WHILE SHE DRIVE AND SHE BE GOING INTO THE OTHER LANES AND BE ALMOST BOUT TO RUN IN THE BACK OF PEOPLE THAT MAKES THE PEOPLE IN THE CAR WITH HER VERY SCARED TO EVEN RIDE.THIS IS VERY SCAREY WHY NOT JUST PUT THE PHONES AWAY AND TALK AND OR TEXT ON THEM WHEN TIME PERMITS. YOU GOT SOME THAT JUST DONT UNDERSTAND THE DANGER THE SITUATION PUT OTHER PEOPLE IN.OR THEY REALLY EVEN CARE ANYMORE BECAUSE IF SO IT WOULD BE MORE DRIVEIN AND LESS TEXTING.THIS HAS GOT TO GET A ENDING POINT SOME WERE.

college is too expensive why is that? In my oponion college shoulnt even have a price tag on it , thats because its education. education should come free all the knoeledge should come free with out any problems. why should college accept the money for some one that trying to get an education. In slavey time black wasnt able to read or touch a book. its so expensive because of the books why do any race should pay for book. Are we just paying for and better education the hihger the rate goes. prices shouldnt be on education. prime example their are people that wants too go to college have all the brains too go but dont have the money. their are being punished because the expensece on the college fee. I dont understand if i was to go too this college of this price or this college of this price. colleges are to expensive you have too by books, the price cause you are coming out of town you have to pay for you dorm room Ect. it jus too much for and education.

I strongly agree with this article. I think texting and driving is really dangerous. It takes concentration off of the road. I also agree with teen drivers being at a higher risk of being in car accidents. Most teen drivers are not that experienced than adults that have been driving for years. This makes texting and driving a road hazard for all drivers. Say for instance, a person can be driving at a speed rate of 50 miles an hour and is coming to a light that may be green. The person has just received a txt message and just looked down to reach for the phone. Then is distracted by what the text message says. When he looks up he hears horns blowing because he is now in the middle of an intersection because he ran a red light. Texting and driving is dangerous and it shouldn’t be done at the same time.
