Why You Shouldn't Text or Be Drunk While You Drive
Authors Note: This is a persuasive essay on why people shouldn't be texting or getting drunk when they are going behind the wheel.
When I hear on the news about an innocent person or people have been killed by a drunk or texting driver always devastates me. Those people who know they are the culprits have to understand that 2 beers is fine have one when you get home if you really want another one or even the text can wait. I have a family friend whose was running on the side walk on Pewaukee Lake got hit by a drunk driver in the afternoon. Now instead of the driver calling the ambulance to give him medical attention they drove off leaving him in the ditch. Now that just sets an example on the type of drivers who have made these mistakes. The selfish drunk or texting drivers and the ones who are sincerely sorry for their horrific actions.
There was this story about a little girl who was riding her bike was 19 pedals away from her house a texting driver hit her from behind and guess what the text said...."kk". Now when the little girls mom saw the accident she went in to help but then noticed that it was her baby girl lying there dead on the ground. Now just imagine what that mom felt like.
These stories are real, real life lives are being lost because of one stupid move its horrific. Also if you're still not convinced on why texting and being drunk behind the wheel is bad join Oprah's organization and sign a few papers. Being focused behind the wheel can save many lives. The beer and text can wait.
