text: Texting and driving is closer for you to get into a car accident. It may cause damage to oneself that oneself may never overcome. Most car accidents are of teens who stay on their phone and don't realize that they are in the wrong lane and don't see an upcoming vehicle. Being that irresponsible can cause traumatic events. If one is distracted by their phone and a car is swerving down the lane because they lost control of the wheel it may cause them to hit one another and one is going to regret it because they could've prevented it from happening.
