Don't mess with Rhode Island!!!

Over the past few years texting has become a phenomenon all over the world, but it seems to be most prominent in teens and young adults. Recent studies done by AAA have shown that almost 46% of teens admit to texting while driving. Texting while driving has also been shown to be more dangerous than drunk driving. Now if you like to text while driving you should stay away from Rhode Island. Rhode Island wants to keep its people alive! The police all over the state are cracking down on anyone who is performing this dangerous act of stupidity. The fines are crazy for getting caught first offense $85, second offense $100, third Offense $120. If you are a minor the fines are a lot heavier and will end up getting your license suspended. Rhode Island has good reasons for doing this, almost 2000 people die of texting while driving in the U.S. alone.
