摘要
The statistics are staggering. Cell phone use contributes to approximately 6% of all accidents-equivalent to 636,000 crashes resulting in 330,000 minor injuries, 12,000 serious injuries, and 6,000 deaths per year [1, 2, 3]. It is no longer merely a fashion statement or a status symbol, but rather a twenty-first century mutated cellular appendage protruding from either ear. This modern day epidemic is the cell phone. © 2009 IEEE.
