Keep Stoping! driving while sending SMS/Texting

Immediately stop to SMS or texting while driving or riding a motorcycle. This is not just the usual caveats. Habits that can reduce the reflex is very significant. Mean, life - be yourself or someone else - flying.

Christine Yager of the institution Texas A & M University's Texas Transportation Institute has conducted research at the influence of the reflexes to SMS. He collected 42 responen aged 16-54 years to drive a car on a special track with obstacles similar situation highway, is 17.7 km. Motorists should try to stop as quickly as possible, when the yellow indicator light on the dashboard lights up.

Well, tests done in two ways. First, when texting. The result, the driver's reaction took three to four seconds to stop the car. Second, without SMS just need one to two seconds.

Interestingly, Yager also tested the same thing on some bikers and the results are much worse! Braking reaction 11 times worse, and some even did not stop his motorcycle. This is concrete proof!

"Good reading or typing SMS while driving, have the same weight will transfer concentration. Very dangerous," said Yager. Imagine, if the car in front suddenly stopped, what happened?!

In the UK driving while to SMS has become a "sin"to be allowed. But now, local police have expressed readiness to crack down on this behavior as a violation of driving while intoxicated.
