text: Distracted driving affects teenagers more than anyone else. Studies show that more than half of teenagers involved in an accident admitted to it being because of distracted driving. That is to say, "Teenagers have the highest rate of crashes of any age group in the United States," stated by Mila Araujo. Teenagers these days are so attached to their phones to where it's apart of their daily lives. They feel the need to respond to a text or look on social media constantly to where it becomes a habit, and when they get behind the wheel they automatically look on their phones when a simple buzz goes off. Teenagers who are driving risks their lives every time they pick up their phone behind the wheel.
