In this May 6, 2010 photo, 10th-grader Colt Nielsen tries driving while texting during a school demonstration event in White River Junction, Vt. While states pass laws banning texting while driving, some are going a step further, giving kids first-hand experience of the dangers of sending electronic messages while behind the wheel. They're sending kids through obstacle courses on golf carts while texting, keeping track of how many errors and fatalities they may cause. (AP Photo/Toby Talbot)
