text: The second reason why drivers should not be able to use their cell phone while operaBng a vehicle is because you are more likely to crash and you put others at risk. Many people use their phones while driving when they're with their friends or family as they might feel comfortable enough to do so or feel they are skilled enough to do so..In another blog post by Napoli Shkolnik PLLC it says,"Not only does texBng and driving put your own life at risk, but it also gravely endangers the lives of other people around you. As a driver, you are responsible not only for the passengers in your car, but also for other motorists on the road, not to menBon pedestrians who oben end up hurt or killed because of the negligence of drivers. Speaking of pedestrians, you know how kids can pop up seemingly out of nowhere and get on the road? Well, you are much less likely to noBce them while looking at the phone in your lap." This piece of commentary on the issue greatly embodies how other people's wrongdoing might a? ect anybody caught in the crosshairs like a child crossing the street. It also provides commentary on how much you value the people in your car if you're willing to put them in such grave danger in that case. Another good point can be found from the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia where they have an arBcle that says,"Because technology will change and new distracBons will be introduced, parents need to make sure teens understand the value of engaged driving, where the driver is conBnuously aWenBve and focused. Make a family commitment not to use distracBng devices while driving.
