An unspecified number of adults were polled and 49% of them, all commuters, admitted to texting. 98% of the adults polled said they were conscious of how dangerous texting while driving is. Even still, 40% of them say that texting while driving has become habitual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">Teenagers view&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.novaattorneys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">texting while driving&nbsp;<\/a>and texting at a red light as two separate activities. 97% of them are aware that texting while driving is dangerous and 70% think texting while at a stop light is dangerous. Only teenagers were polled on their red light activities. 8 in 10 of the teenagers polled said they saw adults texting behind the wheel while driving, though 9 in 10 say their own parents are good role models.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">More and more AT&amp;t phones come with a sticker on the screen that says \u201cIt Can Wait\u201d; it\u2019s a part of a campaign aimed at reducing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.novaattorneys.com\/\">texting while driving<\/a>. Businesses are taking this quite seriously because they can be held liable if an accident is caused by an employee texting while driving.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"\">In Virginia, there is a push in the senate to make&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.novaattorneys.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">texting while driving&nbsp;<\/a>a primary offense. Right now it\u2019s still a secondary offense which means one can only&nbsp;be ticketed for texting while driving if a primary offense is&nbsp;being committed.
