Federal safety regulators are hoping to hang up on teen drivers using their cellular phones.

On Tuesday, Sept. 20, the National Transportation Safety Board added to its list of “Most Wanted Safety Recommendations to States” – an advisory to ban teens and novice drivers from using their cell phones while driving.

According to a press release, implementing the law would help inexperienced drivers concentrate while they learn important driving skills.

“An average of more than 120 young people die every week in vehicle crashes in this country. It’s a tragedy that repeats itself in every city and community, and it has to stop,” Acting NTSB Chairman Mark V. Rosenker said in a press release. “We must do everything we can to reduce these needless deaths and we strongly believe that banning wireless communications devices for teenagers learning to drive will help significantly.”

NTSB only has the power to make recommendations, but members of the group often lobby to implement the suggestions, The Associated Press reported.

Eleven states and the Washington, DC, currently have laws banning teen cell phone use, according to NTSB data.
