Don't get me wrong, I love texting. It's one of my main hobbies. However, texting is becoming too much of a problem in our society today. Laws have been passed regarding this issue, but it seems that laws are just not enough. Not too long ago, a law was passed stating that texting while driving is illegal. Many accidents have been caused by drives who have not been paying attention to the road, but have been paying attention to incoming text messages. Various injuries as well as deaths have been caused by this handheld device. Texting has also become an issue for pedestrians. People walking across the street are also distracted by texting and this causes accidents as well. They become distracted while crossing streets and walking on the sidewalk which causes car accidents and collision with humans. Not only has texting become an issue in the streets, but in school as well. Texting has been a cause of distraction nowadays. For someone to be focused on the lesson or what is being taught, the person must have no distractions. No talking, no games, no texting. From my experience, I can say that texting truly has an impact on our grades and our concentration. However, there seems no way to get around it. Soon, texting is going to be the base of our society. Texting is taking over the world.
