distracted driving how much will it cost
Distracted driving crashes cost the United States as much as $175 billion a year, according to a federal study.
A driver can become distracted from safe driving by use of a mobile telephone (like a cellular telephone). In New York State, it is a traffic infraction, and you could pay by a fine up to $100 and five license points, to speak into or listen to a hand-held mobile telephone while driving.
