Today 's Drivers
At some point in our lives we will cross paths with a reckless driver and when doing so we also become infuriated and lash out. At that point are we considered a reckless driver too or just a victim? In this era the amount of road accidents has significantly increased. Reckless driving is seen everyday and is ultimately the cause of road accidents. These drivers not only put their lives in danger they also put lives of every other innocent body in danger. So how can we prevent such things from reoccurring? Well to answer that question we can become more knowledgeable about reckless driving. According to the article “ The 9 Most Dangerous Things Drivers Do”, the number one bad habit we do while driving is driving under the influence of alcohol. We all know that alcohol impairs our vision and ability to make sound decisions decreases so we should have a plan before consuming alcohol. During my research about ways to prevent drunk driving I found many loopholes around such irresponsible actions. In another article about “Tips To Prevent Drinking And Driving” they mentioned choosing a designated driver, calling a taxi, hiding keys of someone who is drunk, and above all be responsible. Another big mistake while driving that we do is talking on our cell phones, or distracted driving. There are many other ways a driver can become distracted. For example, putting on makeup and eating are a couple but above all cell phone usage. We all love our cell phones because they are beneficial in that it 's easier to communicate with people and we have become addicted to our cell phone. Due to the enlargement of technology, cell phone usage have been an increasing bad habit among drivers for years now and from the looks of it continue to increase. This increasing habit is so dangerous that law enforcement is issuing fines if caught using your cell phone. Provided by the article “ Car Accident Statistics”, there are more than 60 million car accidents
