Answer to Question 1

The external costs associated with cellular phone usage may include a higher incidence of traffic accidents. Not only are the individuals involved in the accident bearing additional costs, but so also are other insured drivers who now have to pay higher insurance rates. External benefits could include the ability to report an accident so that help can reach victims more quickly, and so that traffic reporters can advise motorists to avoid a particular area.
