Mechatronics-Texting and walking made illegal

Jeison De la Rosa | 21.02.2013

I think that texting and walking is very dangerous. i am agree with my classmate Alvaro, because when you are texting in your cellphone, you lose all point of reference from where walking. it is really a challenge for all things that you can find in the street.

really is exposed our health, you can suffer a accident to crossing the street. furthermore you security is exposed to, because if you have a luxurious cellphone easily can be victim of a thief, and can lose your cellphone.

I think too that is not necessary the prohibition of this type of activities, but we should be aware that it is good for our style of live, is a bad practice and should be corrected.

Hi jeison...
I think that, should be implemented the fine for use irresponsible of cell phones, but not the prohibition, that people stop to texting when the situation warrants

It's true what you say.
But we are in a dangerous country in Colombia people know of the danger of texting while walking.

"thieves were responsible for imposing this as a law" (laughs).

I totally agree. because people who Texting and walking can cause accidents. also, I totally agree with laws that prohibit and fined

I agree what Alvaro Leal said. because the people would not see the road and this would cause an accident. they could fall or be run over

Alvaro Leal | 21.02.2013

in my opinion it is true because when you are texting and walking, you lose the vision of the road, and don't be focused in walk, just in texting, which could made you trip over or fell into something, or some of mentioned in the listening. for that reason we have to be carefull if we are going to texting, because it could hurt us.

the communication rather than necessity it to become a vice, no import the situation, no import the place, allways we are want in communication with friends and family, but we should know what is the appropried place for to send a texting, we shouldn´t do walking because it is social responsibility, is like taking a dog to the park and pick up its faeces. we can cause accidents to others, equally, to ourselves.
for this reason we may be fined and so the accidents and thefts will reduce markedly.
if we avoid texting while walking, we will do a better society

completely agree with you
PD: we are selective in the palces to texting

hello
I very much like what you want to plant as many people walk the streets, intersect, ie go from one side to another, talking on messages without any precaution, or seeing what might happen.

today it is being seen in a more advanced as technology has evolved and are more things which are seen, and this is added a number of people who come to the same, without seeing the consequences or accidents can pass, this being one of the causes of danger in the streets, or anywhere, because I do not see where they walk and may even crash.

so I think the best way for us all as people realize that we must be more aware and be wary of the causes that can happen, and as if we did not do this all the avoid. although one can not doubt that talking on messages is a medium that serves as entertainment, but all that we as human beings we must be more aware and do our part to avoid any accident occurs. since all that is happening is in large size for us. why we have to put a grain of sand so that more accidents have not this.
thanks ....

Comic

Sheyla Barraza | 15.07.2012

Cartoon or comic is called a 'series
of drawings that make up a story
"," with or without words ", and
the media as a whole. Based on
Will Eisner's conception of the
graphic narrative as a sequential
art, Scott McCloud comes to the
following definition: "Illustrations
and other images juxtaposed in
deliberate sequence intended to
convey information or to obtain a
reader's aesthetic response."
However, not all theorists agree
with this definition, the most
popular today as it allows the
inclusion of the comic book and,
instead, ignores the so-called
humor. The interest in the comic
"can have very different
motivations, from the aesthetic
interest to the sociological
opportunism of nostalgia."

my opion about texting and walking

octavio lopez estrada | 13.07.2012

hi everybody !!
ok, my opinion about this topic is that many people do it.. in the street you can see people texting and walking in the same time.. the tecnology is great! and more when we talk about the cellphones, ok, everybody know it but this is a big problem, i'm one of those people and i accept it. the real problem is that we know it and we don't do anything for avoid it.
i'm on favor of establish fines for this problem.
we must be aware of what we can produce if we don't understand the problem. every day we hear in the news accidents and accidents. we are the only responsibles about it.
we must learn to respect the rules of our country, is for our well, is for the well of everybody. stop the irresponsibility is our compromise.
thank you.
