Evaluating Content edit

The overall article is good, it gives us a lot of statistics and tells us the disadvantages of texting and driving. The article contains a lot of research done on texting while driving. It also mentioned different laws and fines of texting while driving in different countries. The thing which bothers me at this point is that there are no proper solutions provided for that. In the article, it was mentioned that according to a study in four states they had more accidents when they had banned texting while driving. This study clearly showed that people don't follow the law so another action should be taken. If we have a big and major issue then a proper action and solution should be presented on that as well which was not available in this article. The article did tell about different apps which a driver can use before start driving so the driver won't receive the calls or text. This is a good solution but it cannot work for everyone. Not everyone has the latest vehicles nor the smartphones where he/she can upload that kind of apps.

Evaluating Tone edit

This article has a lot of information about the disadvantages of texting while driving and laws made by different countries and states. I think that this article is neutral and not biased. The only thing which should be added is more solutions to avoiding texting while driving.

Evaluating Sources edit

I checked the sources provided in the article and some of the links did open and had the relevant stuff used in the article. Those sources do support what the article talks about, but at the same time, there are some links which are not available and giving an error. Overall the sources which were opening are neutral and not representing only one country or group.

Talk Page edit

There are different kind of discussions on the talk page and one of them is that the article is outdated as some of the fines are changed in different states. This article is rated is as c-class and mid importance project. It is the part of wikiproject law

I added a paragraph between 500 to 550 words in the article I reviewed and add five reliable sources as well.

"Assignment 9 completed": edit

The suggestions I got for my assignment are good and agree with them. I agree that there are a lot of dates, fines, and all that stuff we need to know. It also is suggested that the paragraph are too long to read so the paragraphs should be short and on point, I also agree with that.
