Should 16 year old teens be able to talk on their cell phones while driving?

?


    




trevor k
no one should be able to because when you are on the phone all your mind is concentrated on is the conversation going on between you and whoever you are talking to. and when you arent paying attention to the road then you will most likely cause an accident because you arent fully alert of what is going on on the road

no,its a big distraction to the driver.

No, no one should, its distracting...its actually illegal in some states, if not all, it is in NY where i am from...and 16 year olds probably shouldnt be allowed to drive in general. I am all for raising the driving age .

yes, but no texting (that is what most 16 year olds do), and no one else should beable to either

if everyone else is aloud to talk + drive 16 year olds should be able to too

No one should, there are inexpensive options available and if one can afford a phone one should be able to get a blue tooth or something!!!

I wish you could ask my daughter in law. she has 3 disc removed in her lower back along with plates on both sides of her spine, she also has 2 disc removed in her neck along with plates on both sides of her neck, all because some know it all knothead 16 year old thought it was more important to tune the radio than pay attention to driving, then slamming into the back of her car which was at a stop sign. the answere is no

Depending on where you live, it's against the law to talk on cell phones while driving anyways.

I live in a pretty small town, and they haven't banned it yet.

It is dangerous though, regardless of age.

um not at all sorry.. people who are older who have more experience with driving have trouble with driving n talk on their cell phones.. nevermind 16 year olds with 0 experience with driving trying to talk on the phone.. do uss all a favor n dont do it.

Nooooooooooooooooooo.

Read the reports from the (NHTSA), 16 to 20 year olds have a hard enough time just trying to drive, give us a break.

nobody should. this is why there are so many rear end accidents. im even afraid to answer my phone while driving and im only 22. so save the conversation for later till your stopped at the store or something.

I don't think anyone should talk on their phone while driving, especially someone that is just starting to drive in general and are still learning.

Nobody, of any age, should be allowed to yak on the phone while driving. The only time it can be excused is an emergency call to the police.

Talking on your cell phone and driving is literally as much, if not more, dangerous than driving drunk.
(No joke, it's been tested by scientists)


Utkarsh
nobody should.its dangerous


where is everybody?
16 year olds are beginner drivers to begin with. your not slow so i'm guessing you already know this answer

No one should.
Bad things will happen.


Laura S
NO, and I am sorry I don't even think 16 year old should be driving either! They should be required to have an adult with them while they drive at 16, them if by 17 they can pass all tests then be allowed to go solo...but still no phones~!!!!!
