text: We are so interested in our cell phones, that we feel like everything we do, we have to have our phone with us. It's like now we can't live without the phone. So therefore, I don't think drivers should be able to use a cellphone while driving. You are putting your own life and others at risk when you pick up your cellphone while driving. Once you pick up the cellphone, you become distracted. Your focus isn't on the road anymore, it's on your cell phone. So you don't know what's in front of you. Also, you set a bad example for children when you use your phone while driving. They will get into a car and think it's okay to use their phone while driving. Then this big problem won't be stopped.
