In the article "Texting and Driving Accidents Statistics" by Edgar Snyder and Associates, it says "Nearly 390,000 injuries occur each year from accidents caused by texting while driving." This means that thousands of people are injured each year by irresponsible drivers. Also in the article "Texting while Driving" by Matt Robertson, he states that "Many people have died as a result of other people texting while driving."
