Texting while
driving
is dangerous: poll study |
|
Nine out of 10 Americans feel that sending text
messages from a mobile phone while driving is as dangerous as
drinking and driving, but admit to doing it anyway, a poll published
on Tuesday showed.
Although 89 percent of the 2,049 adults polled online by Harris
Interactive said texting while driving was dangerous and should be
banned, and 92 percent said it was as bad as having a few drinks and
driving, 66 percent of respondents admitted to reading text messages
while at the wheel.
