1)I noticed the the passage will be primarily about cell phone use while driving is worse than driving drunk. I also think this is going to be mostly opinionated.
2)The evidence in this article are facts about how bad cell phone use while driving is.The author gives examples from a driving simulator, quotes the us national highway traffic association and has different percentages on the topic.
3)The main idea of this article is to show how dangerous driving while using a cell phone actually is. It is so bad that there are more accidents and deaths than there are from drunk driving.
4)Drunk drivers are more aggressive while driving and did not get into an accident during the Utah test. Cell phone users on the other hand were more sluggish, reaction time delayed, would brake drastically and than accelerate unnecessarily, and 3 accidents occurred while this experiment was being tested.
5)Is, like, while, in addition were some signal words that helped me find my answers.
6)Hand held cell phones are just as dangerous as a regular cell phone because you are in a conversation and are paying attention to what eachother are saying and not the road and whats actually going on around you.
7)The cell phone industry see's the problem the same way gun company's look at it, cell phones don kill people, people do. They cant tell you how to use your phone just suggest it. People can wait till they are done driving to call people back or pull off and stop to make a phone call but you dont see to many people doing that.

Glad to see you are playing catch up. After citing the examples and studies, do you still think that it is based on opinion or is it fact???
i like your comparison to the gun control. it shows that people will always turn the other cheek about cell phones.
