text: In 2016 cell phones were responsible for 421,000 accidents around the united states alone. That's the equivalent of 5 dallas cowboy stadiums full. Out of that number 253 were fatal accidents. This was all in one year. The studies are evident occupied driving is a terrible and destructive habit that americans are responsible for starting. On average the american spends 24 hours week on their phones. Thats a day out of every week spent glued to a virtual reality.
