Answer

According to a study, one-third of people prefer communicating through text messaging to making phone calls.

According to a study, 96 percent of police-reported car crashes in 2012 involved passenger vehicles.

According to a study, 40 percent of teenagers have been a passenger in a car with someone who is sending text messages.

Explanation

Choice A directly compares collision risk: a person who texts while driving is 23 times more likely to collide than an undistracted driver. That is clear evidence that texting while driving is dangerous. The other statements describe texting preferences, types of vehicles in crashes, or how often teens ride with someone who is texting, rather than showing the danger itself.
