This article said about the dangerous of texting while driving. In many possible dangers associated with technology such as cyberbullying, online and game addiction, inappropriate material, sexting.. texting seems the most dangerous. A recently survey says that truck drivers who were texting were 23 times more at risk of a "crash or near crash event" than "nondistracted driving." Teens are at the biggest risk when they drive. The statistic says that "The average U.S. mobile teen now sends or receives an average of 2,899 text-messages per month" and apparently some of those texts are being sent and read from behind the wheel.
This article also gives a video which depicts a teenage girl texting while driving followed by a terrible crash with gruesome results for her friends in her car and the family whose car she hit. Be aware when you drive is the main point the article wants to say.
