Which best uses the evidence to support the viewpoint?

The correct answer is:

One major distraction that should be eliminated while driving is cell phones, as studies have shown that sending or receiving a text message diverts a driver’s attention from the road for an average of 4.6 seconds.

This answer best uses evidence to support the viewpoint because it is the most complete of all the options. First, it goes direct to the point when using its main purpose, which is to eliminate the use of cellphones while driving. Second, it immediately shows the object that causes the distraction of drivers, which is cellphones. Third, it shows what specific actions distract drivers while using cell phones, which are sending or receiving a text message. Finally, and most importantly, it gives an exact measure of how much a driver takes to send and receive a text message, which is 4.6 seconds.  Although, this is the best that uses evidence, it does not cite the sources properly, for example when it is mentioned, “as studies have shown”, the author should have mentioned the titles of the studies and what institutions made the studies. The author should have also included statistics comparing the different actions we do when using a cellphone while driving; answering a call, hanging up a call, playing music, etc.
