Commentary assignment
As you walk around campus,cars are zooming by trying to find parking. While observing these drivers I noticed that many were texting while driving. I could see students and teachers looking quickly down at their phones and trying to write at stop signs. I thought it was so crazy that people were actually driving and texting. It is so dangerous to take your eyes of the road. Especially when you are driving in an area with a lot of pedestrians. It reminded me of all the articles I have read about texting and driving. Had no one else read or realize how careless they were acting. No one else noticed these drivers since they were not paying attention to their surroundings as well. I probably would have not noticed it so much,unless I had been assigned to observe people. Some students might not even care since they text while driving too. I find this to be very unsafe, since driving should occupy all of your attention. Not getting into an accident seems more important than telling your friend you at school. Everyone has seen all the accidents that happen just on Alafaya. Something should be done to rectify the situation and make UCF's roads safer.
