text: Fatality is an occurrence of death by accident. Sure you do not mean harm when you are texting your friend while you are driving, but once that sudden stop or movement you did not see causes you to crash, you could possibly die or kill someone else. No one behind the wheel of a vehicle expects it to be their last time driving. However, approximately 660,000 people are attempting to use their phones while driving. According to The National Safety Council, cell phone use leads to 1.6 million crashes each year ("On the road"). Nearly 390,000 injuries were caused by accidents attributed to texting and driving. In 2016 3,450 fatalities were caused by texting and driving ("texting and driving accident statistics"). Also one over four car crashes in the United States are caused by texting and driving. In conclusion, texting and driving is dangerous to lives of death.
