  2. Texting and Driving • Why did I chose this topic? • Because I think it is very dangerous to text while you are driving.

  3. Why is this a problem? • This is a problem because people are dying and getting injured. • The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration reported that in 2010 driver distraction was the cause of 18 percent of all fatal crashes – with 3,092 people killed – and crashes resulting in an injury – with 416,000 people wounded. • Eleven percent of drivers aged 18 to 20 who were involved in an automobile accident and survived admitted they were sending or receiving texts when they crashed.

  4. How could the problem be fixed? • Do not buy a phone. • Your seat should zap you every time you try and text. • You should get a ticket when you are texting and driving.
