text: In Fact,The National Safety Council that cell phone use while driving leads to 1.6 million crashes each year. Talking on a phone while driving is dangerous,period, and our to drivers is to simply don't do it",Jonathan Adkins. Distracted driving accidents are more common than you think roughly nine people are killed and more than 1000 injured daily in which at least one driver was distracted. Nearly 4000 were killed in crashes involving distracted drivers in 2015. In my opinion, i believed getting to your destination is more important than any text or phone call that can distract you from driving safely. One distraction can cause multiple lives including yours.
