It can lead to the death of loved ones, and can be compared to the same level of danger as drunk driving. No matter what age the driver is, under no circumstance should they be texting while driving. Texting or using a cell phone while driving is hazardous to you and to others. One reason the majority of people are against this action is because it causes a great amount of car accidents every year. While driving, adults and teenagers cannot resist the urge to pick up their cell phone and send a text or respond to one, as soon as the driver’s eyes meet their cellular device; their focus on the road is drawn away.
Riding a motorcycle has been described as a sense of freedom. This sense of freedom comes from the not being enclosed or separated from the experience of the journey. One important issue that has arisen with motorcycle safety is if there should be a universal helmet law in all states. A car provides the driver with the protection of seat belts, airbags and the structural frame itself. Motorcyclists are at a higher risk for injury due to the absence of safety features.
Her argument had a claim, a ground, and a warrant. She supported her stand with evidence from her own observation, such as the fact that the elder people crossing the street could hardly make it across due to the lack of time allocated. Although her supporting arguments seemed reasonable, but I do not see why jaywalking should be condoned. First of all, jaywalking is a crime, and there is a good reason why it is a crime, it is a very dangerous act. The chances of getting hit by a car when jaywalking is very high, as the driver does not expect the pedestrian to cross the street where there is no traffic light.
So obviously we understand that without the rules of the road it would not be safe at intersections, but what about on roads that do not have major intersections? I don’t want anybody speeding through my neighborhood, which they would do if there were no speed limit signs. If the road is only big enough for one car to get through so it should be a one way street, what are we going to do, back up and let the other car go and then move forward hoping another car does not come, but when they do have to back up again. I don’t think so. There’s another reason why having rules at all is important.
Dangerous Driving Habits The majority of traffic accidents are caused by dangerous driving habits aquired and practiced by drivers. A recently new dangerous habit is the use of a cell phone while driving, but the most dangerous driving habit is driving after consuming alcohol. Another habit that many people tend to have but don’t view as dangerous is listening to music while driving. It’s imperative that drivers understand these issues need to be taken seriously. The statistics continue to rise, but if we would take time to think about the lives being put in danger, perhaps we wouldn’t allow ourselves to be so heavily distracted.
Examine a number of ways in which the United Kingdom Constitution is: (a) similar and (b) different to other constitutions. Constitutions are concerned with the role and powers of institutions of the state and the relationship between the citizen and the state. A constitution serves to define the power of government and act as a guardian of fundamental rights. The premise of this essay is to compare the United Kingdom constitution with constitutions of the United States of America, Australia and France. There is no single document entitled the United Kingdom constitution; this leads some academics to call the constitution unwritten and some claim that the United Kingdom has no formal constitution at all.

Having any device in your hands while driving is extremely dangerous and can lead to many serious consequences. First, by occupying our hands while using our phones or any other electronic device, such as tablets, GPS, or mp3 players we are increasing the risk of loosing proper control of the car with less time to react to any possible situation or to avoid any possible crash. Second, the use of cellphones while driving require us to look away from the road, making the risk of having an accident even bigger since we are not completely aware of our surroundings. Moreover, another aspect of this law that should be addressed immediately is to prohibit all bus drivers the use of cellphones or electronic devices at all time while driving, even with the “hands-free” devices. The distraction from cellphone use does not only come by texting or looking at the screen of the device for any other specific reason such as looking at pictures, or
Florida Ban While Texting Law penalizes your license but you do not receive a ticket for it. Laws like this should be abolished, as well as the freedom to use your phone at a traffic stop or jam. In the state of Florida, they even have laws for motorcyclists. They are allowed to listen to music and use cellphones at certain times when on the motorcycle. The laws that are currently enforced in Florida are not necessarily serving a purpose to the people because accident rates are the same as well as deaths from distracted driving.
Texting while driving is highly prohibited for all drivers in Ohio, but more for teenagers. The reason this is enforced on teens more is because, it is very distracting to a driver who already needs no more distractions. Some might argue that is just because of their age and say it’s not fair. Well that’s where there wrong. Yes, it does have to do with their age but all drivers text while driving no matter the age, it is just more likely in a younger age.
