Angela Daly argues that states should pass laws regulating the use of cell phones in moving vehicles. She presents research showing that cell phone use while driving significantly increases the risk of accidents, to a degree similar to drunk driving. Several studies found a four times greater risk of accidents when using a phone. Despite this danger, current laws often result in light punishment for drivers involved in fatal accidents due to phone use. Daly advocates state laws with clear restrictions and penalties to reduce accidents and save lives on the roads.
