Much better! Read and compare carefully to find all the changes I made. Also, figure out how to include the underlined sentences with your first statement about statistics (your second sentence).
Banning the use of cell phones while driving (including calls and texts) would be a very appropriate topic for a research paper since this is a widely debated topic that not only affects the individual driving, but also other people on the road. Furthermore, there are many statistics about the various types of accidents caused by drivers using cellphones for any reason. Finally, there are many new technologies invented to catch people who violate the law. Many studies compare the United States to other countries that have already banned the use of phones and have strict laws for enforcement. There are many statistics that show a huge decrease in the number of accidents when no-cell-phone laws are enforced. These statistics will be great evidence to back up the benefits of banning cell phone usage while driving.
