My reaction to this video was wow and like these things really do happen in real life.I have seen some of my friends text while driving or even ride with drunk drivers.If my parents were to see how I drive their reaction would be a good reaction,because I'm a safe driver. Yes I do drive differently with an adult in the car.
I was surprised. Yes, sometimes they be texting while driving. Well, honestly im not driving yet, but if I was driving then they would probably be nervous. I would probably would drive differently if there was an adult in the car with me. But yea thats pretty much it.

It didn't surprise me that they got in the car because they didn't know if he was really drunk and he was joking around or if he was just lying or if he was really drunk. I have friends that text and drive but I'm pretty sure none of them drink and drive. I think they would have nothing to worry about with my driving. Of course I drive differently I don't go as fast I'm more cautious stuff like that
I don't text while driving because I'm not confident with my driving yet. I wouldn't let a drunk person drive in the first place. I can only drive with a parent because I don't have insurance yet. Which sucks because I do have my license. I wouldn't drive differently because I'm not confident enough with my driving to drive in any different way.

I wasn't at all shocked by this video. It's not uncommon for stuff like this to happen among teens. My parents have seen me drive and they think I am a good driver. I do drive different around adults. I feel pressured to drive almost perfect.

My reaction to this video was not really surprising, because this happens pretty much everyday.Most of my friends really don't text and drive becuase we young and we just really still learning how to drive. I don't ride in a car by meself yet, but I would probally drive different without them being in the car with me.
I believe that many teenagers use their phones while driving but I think my friends are smart about not riding with drunk drivers. My parents wouldn't be to upset about the way I drive but I have used my phone before while driving, which I know is bad. Yes I drive a little different when my parents or an adult is is my car. My mom makes me nervous when I drive.

This video was not very shocking, because I'm sure millions of people, teens and otherwise, are texting while driving. Sadly, I have texted while driving before, but always at a stop light. My parents know how I drive, so they would not be at all surprized or upset by my behavior. The only adult I drive differently with is my older brother. For some reason, he makes me really nervous in the car and I tend to make more mistakes with him there.
This is so true. This video really shows how teens act.I know a bunch of friends that text and drive or talk on the phone and drive, but they don't do it when there's other people with them. Right now, my parents would get a heart attack for thinking to let me drive without them. But I think I might drive differently when there's an adult in the car. Only because my parents have something to say every time ten seconds.
This video is crazy. I've seen people text and drive at the same time. I know a couple of people that will drive with drunk drivers, but that will NEVER be me. If my parents were to see my drive, their reaction would be okay because I'm sure I'm a safe driver. I only drive with my mom in the car, so I don't think I would call that different. She makes me nervous when I'm driving with her only because she's always telling me to do this and that.
I'm really not surprised by this video. I only have my learners permit, but I know several teenagers and adults who do all of those things. If I did do those things, let's just say I'd be in a lot of trouble. I drive more relaxed when my mom isn't in the car. When she is in the car with me, I tend to be uptight and stressed out.
I was surprised. I only have my permit but I definitely don't text and drive or ride with drunk drivers. It seems just stupid because it's setting yourself up to get hurt. Like I said, I only have my permit so they wouldn't be surprised at my driving because they are always with me in the car. I only drive with a parent in the car, so I'd say I drive the same.

I wasn't surprised by the video because I have been in a wreck because the driver was texting. I have rode in the car with people who are texting. I don't have my drivers license yet so, I have to drive with my grandma in the car so she sees the way I drive. I wouldn't text and drive or drive drunk and I never will.
These people are worst drives than i am , why would they dive if there horrible at it.My friends don't they call their parents or give me the phone to text for them.My parents would probably take away my keys, my phone,and all my privileges. I would probably not because they would be yelling at me.
I don't text and drive because i'm already cautious enough getting in a car. I would never get into a car with someone I thought was even the slightest bit tipsy. My parents would probably be surprised to how alert I drive ever since my car accident.
It doesn't matter who is in the car I always drive good. Most my friends don't text and drive.
People don't think alot of times that it matters. I don't text while driving, but I do know of people that do. If someone that drove is drunk and I'm not I would just make them let me drive. I believe everyone drives differently with their parents in the car. -Josh Cutchins
I do text while driving but I am trying stop because it is very danger to me and other drivers. My friends also text while driving. I would never ride with a drunk driver. When an adult ride with me in my car I get nerves because I think they going to judge my driving. So I like driving teens in my car than adults.
I'm shocked at this video. Yes friends I know make bad decisions and get in the car with drunk people or those that text and drive. My parents would be glad they already see me when I drive, because I don't have my liscense yet.

I wasn't surprised by this because I know people text and drive. I don't have my license yet. I also know some people drink and drive and shouldn't even drive when they're sober.

It's accurate, most teens do text and drive and act crazy. I have texted once before but i don't do it anymore. I will NEVER drove with drunk drivers. I drive pretty well my parents might be upset because I sometimes get too close to the yellow line. I drive perfect in the car with adults haha.
I was like wow! I don't have my permit or license yet and I haven't rode with any of my friends except up and down a path. My mother texts sometimes while driving and I have never gotten in a car with a drunk driver before. I will never do that either. I have drove with my daddy before down our path, it was my first time so he said I was horrible. I haven't drove by myself yet so I don't know what I would act like.
I was not to surprised by this video because most teens do stupid things like this. I don't text and drive at and I don't think my friends do either. And I would definitely never get in a car with a drunk driver because I would know that my life would be in danger. Even though I only have my learner's permit, I know that my parent's would not have anything to worry about with me driving because I am a safe and defensive driver and I would not want my car to get taken away. I drive the same way by myself, the way I would with my parents.
Most teens text and drive . I dont but i might send a text or two at the a stop light . I would never get in a car with a drunk driver . Peer presure can really hurt or even kill people .
My mom calls me all the time while I am driving. I text and drive very rarely but I do sometimes. I drive the same with my mom in the car as I usually do. ZACH CAHALAN
I was surprised they got in a car. There is no one I know that text and drive.
-Travis Legate
Yeah everyone texts while their driving. People drive drunk all the time. Things ain't ever going to change so oh well. My parents would be pissed how i drive. My mom gets pissed even when i drive good so?

Honestly I do rarely text and drive but I try not to. I usually wait until I get to a stop sign or a redlight to text back. I do know people who ride with drunk drivers. I think they're stupid and I would never do it. I do drive a little differently when adults are in the car. I definitely drive slower on the backroads when I have my mom or dad in the car.
I was really shocked when I watched this video. It's sad that these teens do stupid things like get into a car with a supposed drunken man's car or even text while driving. It's really sad.
I don't know if my friends text and drive. I'm pretty sure a couple of them might. But I'm not 100% sure.
Sadly, I don't even have my permit yet. But I will get it in June! But I am sure that I won't get into a car with a drunken person. Or text while driving. I'm not in the mood to spend a day in the hospital for something that can be so easily prevented.
I do not text while driving or ride with drunk drivers and I cannot speak on what my friends do. Honestly I think my mom would not be surprise because she knows how I drive and most likely would already know my actions on the road. No I drive the same with an adult as well as teens.
Yea a lot of people text in drive but I be like not when I'm in the car.
My mom made me watch this, I don’t even get to drive that much. I have heard some of my friends talk about how they text and drive. If my parents were to see how I drive they would be bored by watching a video of me driving safely. I drive the same with an adult in the car, I only feel more pressured to drive safely.
