Putting texting and driving in context

Taking your eyes off the road for 5 seconds, the average amount of time it takes to send a text, driving 55 MPH, is the equivalent of driving a football field’s length blind

When texting and driving, you are more than 11 times more likely to miss a flashing light

So why do teens still text and drive?

“I need to tell my friends that I’m running late”

“I need to look at the directions”

“I’m at a red light, so it’s fine”

“I can multitask and see the road and my phone”

“It only takes a second to respond”
