The Dangers of Cellular Phones

Paper Summary:

This paper discusses the article, "Cellular Phones: Policymakers Consider the Effects of Highway Usage" by Jamie Kanallakan, issued by the government on the dangers of cellular phones related to deadly car crashes and also their many benefits. It looks at how, as we head into the future, cell phone use is at an all-time high and how arguments conclude that cell phones, when used while traveling, are more beneficial on highways than harmful.

From the Paper:

"Cell phone use, whether hand- held or headset requires drivers to put their focus on more than one task of maneuvering around the streets. The phones require drivers not only to lose focus of your own driving, but cell phones cause them to loose focus of the driving environment around them. A key to driving is to be alert and defensive and the bottom line is that cell phones are a distraction while used when operating a vehicle. Drivers should keep their cell phones in the glove compartment until they are in a position where they are helping others instead of endangering them."
