Drivers education reducing road deaths

When it comes to reducing road deaths and/or accidents drivers ed should be the priority.Before anybody is allowed to get on the road they should be required to complete state required drivers ed hours.Also drivers ed should not only be about how to drive and actually driving, a very important part of learning to drive and being able to drive successfully is knowing what is safe to have in the car and/or being doing in the car.One key lesson to teach is texting and driving and even looking at your phone while driving.It only takes a second to get distracted and be in an accident and in that case you could be hurt or killed, and you are putting others in danger.Some important steps that need to be taken is all phones need to be put on do not disturb while driving this is an application on certain phones that keep phones from giving notification alerts which keep distractions to a minimum when the driver cannot hear the alerts.The second very important step to reduce road accidents and deaths is hands free devices when making phone calls while driving you should not be holding the phone you should have two hands on the wheel.So every driver should be required to have some sort of hands free devices in their car at all times and only use that to answer phone calls.I have never personally been in a car accident but I have seen many of my peers driving irresponsibly many of them being distracted by their phones.Some steps I can take and my peers can take to become better more responsible drivers is making sure all electronic devices are out of sight and phone calls are only taken on hands free devices.Something that is always very important is making sure the music is never too loud to where the driver is distracted and cannot hear what is going on around them.Some states already have required drivers ed hours but it should become law that each and every state has a required set of hours. States with inclimate whether should require a certain amount of the required hours to be driven in snow, sleet and rain.
