A United Nations ambassador has called for laws to make texting while driving illegal
worldwide... During a recent General Assembly session,...
U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Samantha Power asked member countries to consider a
"road safety" resolution... to reduce traffic accidents globally.
The laws would include one that bans drivers from texting while behind the wheel.
Studies show that more than one million people worldwide die each year in car accidents,...
most of them caused by driver behavior. Texting while driving is already banned in
43 U.S. states and the District of Columbia.
