Cell Phones and Driving Safey

1. Driving while talking on the phone at the same time is not a good idea. people must focus on the road instead of talking on the phone having conversations. also several studies show cell phones are a leading cause of car crashes.
2. The evidence presented by the author was based on facts from the studies.
3. The main idea of the article was not to use cell phones while driving.
4. According to the Utah study, the reactions of drunk drivers was different from the reactions of drivers using cell phones.
that drunk drivers were more aggressive than drivers on the phone, and that the drivers talking on the phone were sluggish.
5. The signal words that helped me with my answer was between, commas, quotation marks, and in addition.
6. The response of the cell phone industry was that people causes the accidents not the cellphones.

  4. Is that the only point that the author expressed, don't use a cell phone? Why did they say that? Were comparisons used? In paragraph 5 there is also difference and because to signal a point.
