Socially Distracted

Social media has changed our society within the past year. So many people have become addicted to Facebook or twitter and so on. They have become so addicted it has become a distraction to others. Texting while driving increases every year and now its fb'ing while driving or tweeting while driving. All of these have cost others their lives. Because of the addiction many people have gotten into more car accidents. Cars are so high tech now that they have fb and all other social networks embedded in the radio, this has also been the reason of increase in car accidents. Now the department of transportation is trying to find ways to make it so that those devices on work when you are at a stop eliminating the cause of an accident. But I know people will still find a way of doing so.
