Analysis of distracted driving on an obstacle course 
Experimental Design
Make observations about texting while driving. Conduct research on its impact on driving ability; then write a review of literature. Create an obstacle course to navigate with a scooter replete with the kind of obstacles a driver would face. Navigate the course with and without texting and score your performance. Analyze and make recommendations about the results of your findings. Your research, citation, review of literature, citations, and works cited page must be thorough and in APA format.
