Dangers of Distracted Driving

Cell phones being added to today's teen drivers may be deadly. Safe practices should be advised to all teens and adults with cell phone use. The harsh truth is that teen driver crashes are on the rise and need to stop. The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration found that using a cell phone while driving makes you four times more likely to get in an accident. The National Safety Council is calling for a full ban on cell phone use while driving.

"Some of these companies wouldn't dream of letting fork lift operators in a plant talk on a cell phone while driving around. But they've got sales people on the road doing it all day long," Dave Teater, National Safety Council.

Companies could be held responsible in cell phone related accidents if an employee is driving a company car. Law suits across the country are at an all time high due to the rise in cell phone related accidents. Therefore, it is important that companies lead their employees to safe driving practices. Many Fortune 500 companies have banned employees from using cell phones while driving.

Basic safe driving tips include: Limiting passengers, slowing down, wearing a seat belt, enforcing the rules with a parent-teen driving agreement, and not drinking and driving.
