Answer 1

Ans.) 1 out of every 4 traffic crashes that occur in the U.S. are caused by cell phone damage. Each day 11 teens die as a result of texting and driving. While a AAA poll reveals that 94% of teen drivers acknowledge the vast dangers of texting and driving,35% of those polled admitted to still committing the act.

Distracted driving has burgeoned with the proliferation of cell phones,global positioning systems and other in-vehicle and personal electronic devices. Annually more than 3,300 people are killed and an additional 400,000 are injured in the united states in distracted driving crashes. The unined states (US) federals and state governments have responded to this public health problem with policies and laws;however a more comprehensive and more effective approach is still needed. Some restrictions on the use of electronic devices while driving by federal employees and some voluntary guidelines and recommendations have been issued. Public opinion polls show support for addressing the issue of distracted driving with state laws. The majority of states have laws banning text messaging while driving and prohibiting the use of an electronic device by teenage or novice drivers. Some states prohibit all drivers from using a hand-held cellphone. Currently no state has a total ban on the use of personal electronic devices while driving. Successful past traffic safety campaigns changing driver behaviour have demonstrated the necessity to adopt a "three E's" approach of enactment of a law,education of the public about the law,and rigorous enforcement of the law. Experience reveals that this approach,along with future federal regulation of in-vehicle electronic devices and the employment of technology to limit the use of electronic devices while driving,is needed to alter personal behaviour in order to reduce distractions and keep drivers focused on the driving task.
