What Should We Do?
For a safe trip we have to care for few things when driving.
We've to follow the traffic rules, be careful and stay away from
dangerous moves. Biggest reason of accidents is cell phones,
which we don't hesitate to use when driving.
Speaking with phone, looking at the phone and stuff like this will
distract the driver and it'll increase the accident risk. Driver's
reflexes will be slower and driver won't be able to prevent
accident, sometimes they wouldn't even realize the dangerous
situations.

Statistics
According to car's speed, environmental conditions and driver's age,
reaction time will change and be between 0.6 seconds and 0.9 seconds.
This means, when driving fast driver won't be able to reflex and brake.
According to the research, %20 in an ordinary call and %29 in an ponder
call we can ignore a dangerous situation. Most of the accidents happens
when waiting for a call or end of a call and this means you don't have to
speak with phone for causing a crash. In a research made with 699
drivers, they've find out that after five minute from a phone call, having
an accident risk is 4.8 times much more then normal and 1.3 times more
after 15 minutes from a call.
