What are the dangerous of texting and driving? Are there any local laws that prohibit texting and driving where you live?

answer:

If you driving for texting and phone call is very dangerous.

Use the Internet to find out which countries ban or prohibit the use of cell phones while driving. Collect information on what fines or punishments are given to people who violate the law in such situations.

I live in Toronto. The law stipulates that if you drive a phone call or send text messages will be subject to 600 Canadian dollars above the penalty.
