1Public SpeakingIntroductionOne of my friends was traveling from Birmingham to Montgomery. He was driving the car, and there were four friends in the car. In the midway somewhere he got a call on his cell phone. He picked up the call and within a fraction of second the car struck with another car. All the friends were lucky enough because all of them had minor injuries except the driver. The driver or my friend suffered major injuries and spent almost a month in the hospital before discharge from the hospital. That accident took place only because of distraction by the cell phone.Every year thousands of such accident occurred and hundreds of lives have been lost.

Not a single country has formulated laws and legislation against the usage of a cell phone while driving.The cell phone distracts the driver from their main task to something else, and due to this, every accident takes place. The cell phone can distract the drivers visually, cognitively, manually, and auditory (Kahn et al., 2015). A survey revealed that almost 660000 drivers use a cell phone whiledriving. It is quite a big number and major concern for the society. The same survey revealed that more than 330000 accidents take place every year due to the use of cell phone while driving.
