Drivers of automobiles should be prohibited from using cellular phones.
Many people die every year from accidents. And the reason in most of these accidents is the drivers. We use the cellular phones many times a day to contact with families, friends and do business. Although using cellular phones has many benefits, there are some reasons that the driver of automobiles should be prohibited from using cellular phones when drive for our sake.
Driving while talking on a cell phone not only takes your concentration away from the road, it also takes your eyes away from the road. Drivers using cellular phones are four times as likely to get into a crash that can cause injuries serious enough to send them to the hospital.
Cell phone distraction causes 2,600 deaths and 330,000 injuries in the United States every year, according to the journal's publisher, the Human Factors and Ergonomics Society.Drivers talking on cell phones were 18 percent slower to react to brake lights, the new study found. In a minor bright note, they also kept a 12 percent greater following distance. But they also took 17 percent longer to regain the speed they lost when they braked. That frustrates everyone.
In conclusion, we should not use our mobiles while we driver our cars on the road to safe ourselves and the other.
Driving requires a great deal of concentration in order to keep the road, and ourselves safe. Many people die every year from accidents. And the reason in most of these accidents is the drivers. 4 out of every 5 accidents (80%) are attributed to distracted drivers. When we think about it there are many other factors that contribute to accidents eating, drinking, reaching for fallen objects, applying makeup, and talking to passengers are also some other elements that take the drivers attention away from the road. These days one more an expecting reason added to the list which is the cellular phones. The cellular phones became necessity. We use the cellular phones many times a day to contact with families, friends and do business. Although using cellular phones has many benefits, there are some reasons that the driver of automobiles should be prohibited from using cellular phones when drive for our sake. Cell phone usage has been soaring for the past 15 years. In the 2001 Transportation Statistics Annual Report distributed by the Bureau of Transportation it was reported that by 2001 nearly 120 million Americans subscribed to a cell phone service.
Driving while talking on a cell phone not only takes your concentration away from the road, it also takes your eyes away from the road. Drivers using cellular phones are four times as likely to get into a crash that can cause injuries serious enough to send them to the hospital. In 2008 almost 6,000 people were killed and a half-million were injured in crashes related to driver distraction. According to study conducted by the television show Mythbusters conclude that use of cellular phones while driving poses the same risk as someone operating the vehicle while under the influence of alcohol. It is because the driver did not concentrate to their ways. For example, the driver has to hold cellular phone with one hand and the other hand have to control the automobile. This situation can make his driving performance uncontrolled. Use of cell phones has resulted into many accidents, traffic jams and property damages. People who text while driving are 23% more likely to be in a car accident.

Drivers who talk on either handheld or hands-free cellular phones are as impaired as drunken drivers, according to experimental research conducted by Drs. Frank Drews, David Strayer, and Dennis L. Crouch of the University of Utah. The study reinforced earlier research showing that hands-free cell phones are just as distracting as handheld cell phones. Both handheld and hands-free cell phones impaired driving, with no significant difference in the degree of impairment. They found that people are as impaired when they drive and talk on a cell phone as they are when they drive intoxicated at the legal blood-alcohol limit" of 0.08 percent, which is the minimum level that defines illegal drunken driving in most U.S. states.[3]
To conclude, it is important that every person knows the dangers that talking on the phone while driving. And the people have to take this matter seriously to safe themselves and other people on the street.
