Mobile Phones while driving

In the middle of technology revolutions, the life becomes easier. And mobile phones have spread all around the world; the mobile phone is an important device and so cheap that every person can have it.

First of all, the mobile phone is necessary in our lives; it is a simple device used to chat with others; however it is a helpful device to finish your own necessary business. But I notice some drivers use mobiles while they are driving the car. In my opinion, it is useful when you travel to another country with no worries to find the right positions about the way while driving, by using the mobile navigation; it is connecting data from satellites directly through your mobile to give you the live directions to your way. On the other hand some drivers try to use mobile phone in a negative way and these attitudes will cause accidents on the roads. In addition, there is another benefit from using mobile phones; there is a modern service named SOS; by using this service you can make an emergency call center while you are driving the car to get some help, for example, if your battery died in the middle of desert and no one was there to support you, by calling SOS service the satellite takes a signal from your mobile and transfers it to central office and shows your position, to send help.

Although, some drivers not follow the police traffic rules, chatting in the mobile phone while driving, do this attitude will makes him lose they are  focus in the road while he or she is driving and this causes accidents. Another negative attitudes, playing on mobile phones while driving, for example, sms chatting is one of big driver mistakes to you need keep your eyes direct on the road at all times.

In conclusion, the mobile phone is good if used in a good positive way.
