As
humans, our lives are always advancing, new jobs, new, new
opportunities, new relationships.As these elements grow, our, our
phone gain’s importance into our lives, being,being the most common
way of communication. Many go questions’ cycle through our daily
lives when thinking about our phone.“What did (insert name) say
about me?! “ ,this simple thought could cause a person to hop on
the opportunity to jump to their phone to find the answer. That
person could be in the kitchen making breakfast while having such a
thought
, or even working out.But worst case scenario, they could be driving
.One little thought could drive someone to look at their phone ,
write a response and take their eyes of the road. You maybe
thinking,” it’s only for a quick second,”,in that one second a
life can be taken, maybe, maybe even two, including you. Educating
drivers could create a huge change in dynamic in the way they carry
out their driving habits, speed limits would be obeyed, less texting
a driving could be in effect, etc.
Achieving
these milestones won’t be easy, but, but with certain methods, it,
it could be a small step to safe driving, and , and one giant leap
into life saving.Different methods that can achieve this are with
apps and cell phone settings that have the purpose of no texting and
driving .
I
haven’t personally experienced a car accident, but I’ve had
family members who drove irresponsibly, and, and I have reminded them
to “ Get off your phone!” or to “ Look at the road!’. I’m
that stickler in the family that follows the rules, but in that two
seconds that they were on their phone, something detrimental could
have happen to us and the surrounding people , and I didn’t want to
take that chance.
The
steps I could do to be a safer driver and help others be better
drivers is to inform of the consequences of driving decisions.
Telling people about the effect of their decisions, and how it can
affect the people around them , can change their perspective as a
whole.Also, staying of my phone and telling others to get off their
phone, or even recommended the “ Do
Not Disturb While Driving” setting .Safe driving can save a lot of
heartbreak, agony, and misfortune. Making it home knowing that your
safe,
should be the most important thought while on the road, not your
phone.
