Cell Phone Is Dangerous While Driving

Cell Phone is Dangerous While Driving.

Cell phones are troublesome while driving. When a driver keeps talking or listening to music he or she is not supposed to focus off the road. A cell phone makes a great difference. It is not forbidden to talk to a passenger but it is not recommended to talk to an invisible cell phone communicator. The use of cell phones is the most common distraction, but the use of a hand-held cell phone increases the risk by 1.3 times, which is less than reaching for items on the seat or in the glove compartment. In many countries in the world and even Belize prohibit drivers from using hand-held cell phones, irrespective of weather conditions: at all times, not only on wet and icy roads when a driver decides on dialing or text messaging. According to recent research, a driver talking over a cell phone is four times more endangered to collide with another vehicle than a driver who does not use a cell phone while driving. Cell phone distraction causes 2600 deaths in the United States annually can't say much about Belize due to the fact that it's a law but not put into effect, therefore, when a traffic accident is caused by cell phone it is not put into statistic as other crimes in Belize. Even when an accident is being caused by cell phones the drivers say it is something else had cause the accident.

In Belize I personally had never heard of an accident caused by using of cell phone. Anyone can look around while walking, riding a bike or driving cars, bus, or vans and see drivers answering their cell phones. I do believe in instances when drivers can use their cell phones.

Drivers may be allowed to use cell phones in traffic jams but they must be fined if they use a cell phone while driving at moderate or high speeds, at crossroads, and on twisting and turning roads. Can you do without using your cell phone while driving? The use of cell phones may result in a driver's slower reaction while breaking or regaining speed. It may cause accidents but it may be a coincidence with some other action. So, the use of cell phone is not desirable because it involves a driver in a multi-task activity while driving.

Although cell phones may cause problems, no research is available to point to the rise in deaths cause by the use of cell phones while driving. A cell phone, like any mobile device, simple makes a list of possible causes of accidents longer. But safety is safety, so while driving people should be obedient to publicly accepted behavior. A driver may use a cell phone when he or she stops the vehicle. But in foggy weather or on wet and icy roads this driver may be injured by another moving vehicle that will not expect it there.

Cell phones are life-threatening means of communication while driving. To be on the safe side, it would be fine to ban the use of cell phones while driving.
