Cell Phones+Driving=No Bueno

As cell phones have become more of a necessity and less of a luxury, people have become more addicted to texting, whether they'll admit it or not. It's a quick and easy way of communication--much faster than sending an email or calling someone. This addiction, plus humans' sense of invincibility, is some sort of justification for texting and driving. People think they immediately have to text someone back and surely they can text while driving because, honestly, driving isn't that difficult. The problem isn't about maneuvering a vehicle, it's about being attentive and cautious, no matter how easy driving seems.
It's obvious from the video displayed above that the habitual texting while driving is practiced by people of all ages. If this is the case, why are teenagers the main focus for curbing this habit? Teenagers are not the only ones addicted to texting. Although texting is something that has only recently become a part of this society and many older people don't even know how to text, it doesn't mean teens are all to blame. If anything, those who grew up without cell phones should be the ones to worry about. Most likely, there were not taught the dangers of texting and driving while in a Driver's Ed course. People of all ages need to realize this epidemic going on across the country. Texting while behind the wheel can be fatal and life-changing.
