accident that make by teens who using gadget when drive.They took picture then share in

social media and want to konw about reaction by another user.Most teens do not seem to

explore much beyond that appear when they conduct an online search, and they do not seem

drawn to sites specifically designed for teens. But at the same time, they often complain that

the information they find does not seem to be directly applicable to their own situation.The
