text: Anybody any age can be tempted to use their cellphone while driving. According to the teensdriversource. org, In 2017 the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, 3,166 were killed in 2,935 distraction- affected crashes. Accounting for 9 percent of all fatal crashes in the United States. The best way to avoid using your phone while driving is texting or calling anybody that you may think may contact you and tell them that you are about to drive and will get back to them when you arrive at your destination. Connect your phone to the car Bluetooth and use the buttons on the steering wheels to change the music or radio. Also set your phone inside the glove compartment so you won't be tempted to touch your phone in anyway.
