அமெரிக்காவில் வாகனம் ஓடும்போது குறுஞ்செய்தி பாவனை காரணமாக வருடத்திற்கு 5000 பேருக்கு மேல் உயிரிழக்கின்றனர்

வாகனம் ஓடும்போது குறுஞ்செய்தி (Texting) பாவனை காரணமாக ஒரு வருடத்தில் 5000 பேருக்கு மேல் அமெரிக்காவில் பலியாகின்றனர்.

ஒவ்வொரு தடவையும் குறுஞ்செய்தி பாவனையில் சராசரியாக 4.6 செக்கன்கள் சாரதிகள் கவனத்தை செலுத்துவதாகவும், இவ்வாறான நிலையில் மணிக்கு 55 மைல் வேகத்தில் ஓடும்போது வாகனத்தை ஓடுபவர் சராசரியாக 4.6 வினாடிகளில் ஒரு விளையாட்டு மைதானத்தின் அளவு தூரத்தை வீதி நிலமையை கவனிக்காமலேயே ஓடுவதாகவும், இதனால் மோசமான விபத்துக்கள் ஏற்படுகின்றன என்றும் கூறப்பட்டுள்ளது.

வாகனம் ஓடும்போது குறுஞ்செய்தி பாவிப்பது நீங்கள் விபத்தில் சிக்கும் நிகழ்தகவை இருபத்து மூன்று மடங்குகள் அதிகரிக்கும் என்று ஆய்வில் தெரிவிக்கப்பட்டு உள்ளது.

'Texting, distracted driving kills over 5,000 yearly in US'

More than 5,000 people die every year in vehicle crashes caused by distracted driving mostly as a result of texting and talking on mobile phones behind the wheel, an official US analysis has claimed.

Teen drivers appear to be especially more to distraction, as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration analysis found that 16 per cent of all drivers younger than 20 involved in fatal crashes were believed to be distracted — the highest proportion of any age group.

Texting while driving is particularly perilous, according to David Hosansky, the author of the report.

"Shockingly, texting drivers took their eyes off the road for each text an average of 4.6 seconds -- which at 55 mph, means they were driving the length of a football field without looking," Hosansky was quoted as saying by LiveScience.

Even just talking on a cellphone is dangerous, he said.

"Talking on a cellphone while driving is far more distracting than talking with an adult passenger because it consumes additional cognitive resources, including creating a mental picture of the person on the other end of the conversation.

"Although some people may think they can safely talk and drive, researchers who observe people in driving simulators as well as in actual cars on the road find that a cellphone conversation will invariably intrude on a driver's attentiveness."

A 2009 study focusing on drivers of larger vehicles and trucks concluded that texting raised the risk of a crash by 23 times compared with non-distracted driving.

A 2011 Harris poll found that 59 per cent of adult drivers admitted to talking on a hand-held cellphone while behind the wheel, and 37 per cent said they engaged in texting, though these actions are illegal in many states.

Ten states and the District of Columbia have banned hand-held phone use by all drivers, and other states prohibit cellphone use by younger drivers and school bus drivers.

Yet the distractions don't stop with cellphones, Hosansky said. "Carmakers are adding new technologies to the dashboard, such as Web browsers and GPS units, but safety advocates worry that they are creating even more hazardous driving conditions," he wrote in journal CQ Researcher.
