PDAs were presented in the United States showcase in the time of 1980, and their
utilization right away developed amid next two decades. The pattern of utilizing mobile phones
has expanded all through the world. One of the essential purposes of the massive development of
cell phones is that they encourage correspondence offering high amounts of adaptability
contacting sought individual inside seconds whether he/she is at the office, home, or outside
driving an auto and so forth. Mobile phones bolster in reaching individual successfully and
without wastage of at whatever time. Another primary explanation behind the unstable
development of cell phones is the wellbeing perspective. PDAs arrive amid crisis
notwithstanding amid driving in spite of the fact that utilizing wireless while driving is perilous
and not prudent, it gives the comfort of handling crisis circumstance, listening music through
sans hands, and following courses and so on.
In our previous research proposal, we looked at the angers of using a cellphone while
driving. I personally believe that mobile telephones should be off or set aside even as driving. I
would hate it if some man or woman at a red light turned into texting and had each person in the
back of them wait while they finished their text. Or it may be worse, you could take a life. This
form of behavior has to be regulated and feature a serious punishment. Sure, people will
nonetheless be on their telephones doing who is aware of what, no longer caring what the
punishment might be but as a minimum most of the people will stop and that is secure than it
was before. So the government should enforce and ban the use of cellphones while driving.
Thesis statement: it is hypothesized that despite an effective way of communication, using cell
phones during driving results in distracting attention of driver increasing road safety concerns. Running Head: Use of Cell Phones 3 Billions of individuals all through the world are utilizing mobile phones in day by day
routine life. PDAs furnish correspondence with more prominent adaptability. It is, today
considered not so much form but rather more a utility giving a few advantages. Mobile phones
have distinctive components notwithstanding correspondence including cameras, computer
games, music, FM recipients and so forth. Cell phones not just encourage business and private
accommodation they likewise give solace and wellbeing. In any case, perceptions, experience,
and studies all have highlighted the perilous impacts of utilizing mobile phones amid driving,
entirely inadvisable, and an illicit matter. The real downside of using phones amid driving is that
it occupies consideration of driver.
In spite of offering enormous advantages, phones have turned into a grave concern and a
noteworthy reason for street mishaps. Drivers utilizing phones are not ready to give their total
consideration on streets uncovering themselves as well as other individuals out and about.
Subsequently, the majority of the legislatures, including Austria, Australia, Switzerland, Greece,
Germany, and distinctive Asian and additionally African nations, have forced confinement on
utilizing phones amid driving.
In light of redirection in consideration, drivers respond gradually to the activity signals,
missing them now and again. Primary leadership amid driving is a fundamental component
giving drivers part of a moment to settle on a quick choice about a given complex situation.
Contemplates have highlighted those drivers utilizing PDAs respond gradually and frequently
end on the wrong choice bringing about certain mischances including different vehicles
moreover.
The use of a cell phone while on the wheel has become one of the major factors that have Running Head: Use of Cell Phones 4 caused accidents and the death of many. In one out of the four car accidents across the country is
caused by using a phone while driving. A study done by the National Safety Council has shown
that 26 per cent of car accidents have been caused by drivers who are using their cell phones of
which amounts to 1.3 million accidents. According to NSC’s yearly report, there was a rise of 1
per cent since last year but still has become a growing trend.
What is distracted driving? This is mainly any activity that switches the attention from
driving to either texting or making phone calls among other things in the car. Anything that takes
your attention while driving is called distracted driving. Texting has become one of the major
reasons as to why accidents are caused. It only takes a few seconds for an accident to happen the
moment an individual picks and use their phone as their whole concentration shifts to the phone.
During the year of 2015, a number of people were killed and to be precise 3,477 people died
while others got injured (391,000 in total).
An approximate of 660,000 rivers are using their phones during the day of which creates
potentials deaths and injuries along the roads of the United States. Teenagers were the biggest
group affected as they mostly directed at the time of fatal accidents. The highway patrol in
Nevada has given out more distracted driving tickets of which is a 67 per cent increase.
Distracted driving has proven to be very bad as it can easily take the lives of many.
Most distracted driving offenders that are caught by the police usually end up in prison
for man slaughter just because they couldn’t wait to use their phone after they reach their
destination. This kind of driving has changed the lives of many people especially those whom
caused an accident and the family/friends of the victim as most of them end up being traumatized
thus leading to depression. Families have lost their loved ones due to avoidable accidents which
the drivers were to be careful. Running Head: Use of Cell Phones 5 The other thing is that most drivers never take the road rules/law seriously while others
never got to renew their licenses or rather they don’t care claiming they are better drivers even
without going back to the DMV for an evaluation test. This part of the law is never taken
seriously and forgetting the instructions or road laws is what causes these freak accidents that
could have been avoidable. The traffic police and the government should ensure that drivers
attend their evaluation tests before renewing their license to ensure that they are ready to get
back, behind the wheel.
Using your cell phone while driving actually causes impairment to our vision for example
you will have troubling seeing things on the road like a child/elderly person crossing the road of
whom you’ll end up knocking down. This also impairs our judgment on the road as the objects
you used to see at a far distance have become a blur i.e. the car in front of you seems to be far
but is just a few meters in front of you, so in the long run, an accident will occur.
The impairment is not only affected by the looking at it because it can still be caused but
still occurs whether you were using a cell phone in hands-free of handheld. During cell phone
conversation, we need a lot of concentration as we are required to listen to important news.
Using a cell phone causes drivers to make abrupt decisions due to tension while they are on the
phone since all the concentration is on the phone. In the long run, we end up causing an accident.
Hand-Free gadgets don't wipe out the danger of bringing about a mischance and even
may it exacerbate by proposing that the conduct is sheltered. Looks into demonstrating that
utilizing headset can be as hazardous as holding a telephone because the discussions divert
drivers from concentrating out and about. Researchers had shown that individuals are talking via
phone picture person who they are conversing with and that don't meddle with driving. The issue
is the point at which an auto swerves startlingly or person on foot venture into activity, and the Running Head: Use of Cell Phones 6 mind does not have the handling energy to respond in time. So the issue isn't in holding the
haggle telephone in the meantime what may bring about a mishap due to need maneuver, it is a
result of discussion and absence of response at the especially time.
In spite of the fact that, there are important adverse effects of utilizing mobile phones
amid driving it is related, for contentions, to present advantages moreover. The most critical
advantage of phones amid driving is again the security calculate. Amid crisis circumstances,
mobile phones can give assistance and driver can make emergency calls, notwithstanding
detailing any precarious situation, for example, roadside mishaps. Through phones, a driver can
find the coveted course. Moreover, utilizing FMS on phones can give data about climate and
movement.
In conclusion, we have read and seen data analysis and statistics of accidents are caused by
distracted driving. A driver has the responsibility to take care of their own/themselves while on
the road to avoid any accidents which end up with bad consequences for both parties involved.
The government should enforce the law and standardize the facts that cell phones should not be
used whilst driving and apply hefty fines for those whom will break it. Also, the DMV should
include educate new/old drivers on the consequences on using a phone while driving so as to
avoid simple accidents that were caused due to a silly text you had to reply. As a driver always
make your important calls and answer texts before entering the car and put it on driving mode
while behind the wheel to avoid the temptation of using it.
The paper has presented arguments on both sides of the issue using or not using cell
phones during driving. On the basis of arguments presented in the paper, it can be concluded that
despite an effective way of communication, using cell phones during driving distracts attention
of driver increasing road safety concerns. Running Head: Use of Cell Phones 7 References
