To reduce the number of deaths, you can contribute by never driving under the influence of alcohol or drugs. If you are not fully aware of the things happening around you, you shouldn’t be driving. Stay where you are until your body is fully functionable. Don’t ever let your friends influence your decisions. They might say let's go here or take me there but if you don’t feel safe driving them around you can say no, it’s your car. When a friend asks you to borrow your car make sure they have their license and auto insurance. You never know what could happen to them in your car and you don’t want to be at fault. It’s important to take the safety of others seriously.
My brother is always driving while looking at his phone. This is very irresponsible of him and I tell him all the time. The information on your phone will not be going anywhere. It will be there when you exit the car. If it’s really important then you should pull off to the side of the road. Directions to me are considered really important. If you don’t know where you’re going and you rush off the freeway that can cause an accident. So, you should stop and look carefully at directions for the sake of others and yourself. I also think that it’s very unsafe to be recording yourself while driving. Lots of people do this and post it on social media but what if you kill another person because you wanted to be recording. I know you want to do what everybody else is doing but you should ask yourself, is it really worth it? Knowing that you could possibly kill somebody. Turn your phone off while driving. Put it somewhere you’re not tempted to grab it and open it. Think of it as helping reduce the numbers of lives lost due to irresponsible driving. You’re helping the world become better by decreasing the lives taken due to reckless driving.
