HARRISBURG, DAUPHIN COUNTY - The number of teenager drivers killed on Pennsylvania roads is on the decline. 

Figures from AAA show that six teenage drivers where killed in the first six months of 2012, compared with 10 killed from the same period in 2011. 

Despite the decrease in our state, nationwide numbers are on the up, with 240 teenage drivers killed, which is an increase of twenty when compared to numbers from 2011.  

Many say distracted driving has become one of the main problems.
