Hello
Well the text shows us the reality of today throughout the world by advances in technology, and we do not see how dangerous are these unless we give them to good use, and is good as of this law to see if we get aware of what can cost us a text message.
Thank you.

my opinion about the tex

Domingo Navarro | 12.07.2012

I think it is a drastic measure but very good and we should raise awareness pra have more responsibility at the time of using the streets as pedestrians, transit routes demas.hoy on this day to become a vice very strong, so much so people who suffer at times seems they are on another planet if you think that there are other people around. hope that this measure is carried out and we can work together so that there is no percentage of accidents for this type of problem that exists today and we must be aware of what we are doing to receive a text message.

thank you very much

my opinion about the text is:

This conversation related some true situation in the real life. Why is important don´t texting and walking in the sain time? I think that is very important don´t do it because when anyone do it, the people could pruduce accident in the road.

the people when texting in the street could trip over or bump into someone. A good example for prevent this situation is the law like a New Jersey, in this town the people can´t do it, if the people do it that, they could take a fine.

the attetion or concentration when we try to texting is too much and implicate forget other things: if we go down the street or if we have other priorities.

thankyou.!

my opinion about the law

KELLY URIBE VESGA | 12.07.2012

my opinion about the message that it is very important for both pedestrians and drivers and we should not be distracted by anything because we could cause many accidents if we do not see where to walk, is a bit uncomfortable because I do too but we know that is very detrimental to our lives being distracted in the streets because they could be fewer accidents if we do our part

My opinion on The Texting and Walking Made Illegal

Erica Medina Soto ING 04G1 | 09.07.2012

Text Messages are a unique feature of our time and that have themselves become so great the way we communicate in our daily lives but often make the mistake of giving misuse is well that we use to communicate but because going down the street exposing our lives, causing accidents.
The Texting and Walking Made Illegal I find interesting and they agree with the fines of up to 85 dollars in the city of New Jersey, United States for people who are looking at text messages while they cross the street with this law is expected to reduce the number of accidents in this city.
It is quite dangerous to cross the road while you watch a text message from looking we might run a car, or we could spend another dangerous thing that can happen while we send, see or receive a text message, we could also stumble someone or falling. In China city of a teenage girl is walking and talking on his cell phone and fell six meters down a drain in the street after realizing no caution signs. Also, a woman in a shopping center that fell into a water source because he was distracted looking at a message on his mobile phone.
We must be more responsible when sending or receiving text messages.
Thank you.

Text Messanges

Jeniffer Gomez Villarreal | 07.07.2012

Text messages are way to communicate which was designed for closing distances or speed up processes, but nowadays we realize that for the misuse that is given people commit many mistakes such as distractions, then not taking into account of the place and time to use it, consequently resulting in accidents, either when crossing a road, cause being distracted for the divice, a vehicle may crash us, or in a mall we stumble upon something or someone.

MY OPINION ABOUT THE TEXT

Juan Andres Alonso Duran ING 04 G1 | 06.07.2012

Hello, my opinion about the text is next:

Although some people think that these are strange laws, I think that is not correct.

First of all these laws can save thousand lives, often we don´t stay alert while we are using the cell phone, this problem will be able to generate a lot of accident because we can´t do two action n the same time. Also is necessary known that these laws are to own benefit.

Secondly, all the countries should to have these kinds of laws to help a little long to the security of each citizen, obviously if someone breaks the rule, he will get a fine and I think that this fine should be highly expensive.
Finally, I think that should to have more laws like these because most times the tragedies are caused by “silly thing like texting while we are crossing the street”.

Thanks.
