  8. How can we stop people fromtexting and driving? • From my point of view I feel that we can stop people from texting and driving at the same time by having more police officers on the streets and highways so then they can be aware of people who are doing it and possibly save the life of that person or other people. • Or for example you can approach someone and say “Hi! I’m sorry but when people text and drive it gets me nervous so can you please not do that” So that way can get in a persons head by doing something like that. http://kidshealth.org/teen/your_mind/problems/no_texting.html
