Research shows that distracted drivers are about four times more likely to be involved in an accident than non-distracted drivers are. A person who is texting while driving is twenty times more likely than a non-distracted driver to be involved in an accident.

Nationwide, around 570,000 motor accidents are blamed on distractions from cell phones and texting is consider the biggest problem. While 25 states have passed bills that ban texting while driving, Indiana only restricts those under 18.
