AAA Aims to Ban Texting While Driving, Across America

Texting is at an all time high and the wireless telecommunications association, CTIA, claims that 110 billion text messages are sent each month. Recent research shows that approximately 1 in 5 U.S. drivers admit to texting while operating a vehicle in the last 30 days. In an effort to improve roadway safety across America, the AAA and the AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety are working to ban all texting (and emailing) while driving in each state by 2013.
