Text Box: Text Box: . Dear Alyssa, My friends and I are going to take a trip up to Kearney, Nebraska to go shopping. One of my friends always texts while she drives. I know it is a bad idea to ride with her but what can I do? I don’t want my friends to be mad at me but I also don’t want to take the risk of getting in a wreck. What should I do? Signed, Samantha Text Box: Dear Samantha, That is a very good question. In my opinion I think you either need to just not go or suggest someone else to drive. Texting and driving is not the smartest decision to make. Many teens these days are getting into horrible wrecks all because they were texting someone. Texting can wait until coming to a complete stop. I hope you make the right decision! Sincerely, Alyssa Text Box: Dear Alyssa...
