Although texting is considered the most dangerous effect when driving a car, its negative effects are not comparable to those of talking on a cell phone . Research shows that texting and talking while driving is dangerous because cell phones cause accidents on the roads. Most people say that texting is more dangerous than talking on a cell phone, which I agree with, but not entirely. If someone were to ask the question “What is more dangerous, texting while driving or talking while driving? The person would likely respond with a text message while driving because they can simply compare the two by seeing text messages while driving as if they were looking away and seeing talking while driving as if they were still looking at the road. However, this could be the way right to answer the question, but it is the wrong way, because the person is simply answering a question based on their own point of view and not with knowledge of the intended question. Usually people answer questions based on how they see the things, which is wrong. For example, if a person were to take a test and had some knowledge about a topic, but not enough knowledge to answer the question, then the person's second option will be to see the question one way. different to find an answer, this is how our mind works when we don't have the information for a question, we see things in different types of questions to try to find the right answer, which sometimes works. In this case the person would be wrong to respond with SMS while driving is more dangerous, this answer would be wrong because I believe that conversing is more dangerous because I have done research and acquired the knowledge to prove that texting while driving is less dangerous.. .... half of the sheet ...... 762-770.
