Responsible young drivers understand the dangers of texting while driving and have begun to create online public safety announcements in hopes of preventing auto accidents. In spite of the actions of their peers these young drivers appreciate the dangers of texting while driving. Texting-related accidents are particularly dangerous because the at-fault driver often makes no application of their brakes before impact resulting in a more severe accident and aggravated injuries.
Contests such as the Teens Drive Smart Video Contest have helped increase the awareness of the dangers of distracted driving. Texting is a particularly onerous problem because it is prevalent among young, inexperienced drivers who need to be focusing 100% of their attention on operating a motor vehicle.
