One third of motorists have admitted that they log into the famous social networking site Facebook whilst driving, a study has shown by Confused.com. Half of motorists have admitted to the fact that they must always have their phone on show – but why is displaying your mobile device such a necessity?

It’s worrying to know that some motorists would rather put their social life before the safety of themselves and others while on the road. Whether it’s updating a status, replying to a wall post or clicking “accept” to a friend request, drivers continue to ignore the how dangerous this can actually be. One solution for all those social media-holics out there is to download an app onto their smart phone that reads aloud all incoming messages – it could save your life.
