text: The first problem is that phones take up a lot of focus. Humans by design can only do one thing at once and this can be proven by a very simple experiment. Try to pat your stomach and rub your head around in a clockwise manner. This is difficult because every time you attempt to multitask,your brain is really switching back and forth repeatedly between the two tasks. This is very taxing on the brain. This presents the problem with texting and driving. when attempting to text and drive,you take attention off of driving putting the driver and everyone else around them in great danger.
