We went to pick up some food for a friend in this tight Subway/Gas Station, and she was on the phone when we backed out, and she slammed right into another car, then DROVE OFF, and turned in front of a van while doing it. And this bitch never got off the phone. She was all "GIRL, I JUST HIT SOMEONE, BUT ANYWAY I CAN'T BELIEVE..." OMG!
DON'T TALK AND TEXT ON YOUR PHONE WHILE YOU DRIVE.

I went out to for a food run with a co-worker and on the way back, she was on her phone texting, and she went through a rolling red light. She had plenty of
time to stop if she hadn't been texting.

Texting and driving should only be handled by professional texters.

I do it all the time too, but only when I'm at a red light.

I used to do it all the time. Of course I haven't driven since getting my Blackberry and I now have Vlingo so I might use that but I can text without
looking at my phone.

I think it's stupid and dangerous. It should be banned like talking on the cell phone.

I know it's banned in California and Virginia. I know a few other states have banned both talking and texting as well.

I don't see why it can't wait til you stop. People who do stupid shit like this deserve near death experiences.

Yea, that stuff annoys me. I hate when people are inconsiderate to others and their safety. Like their call about nothing is more important then the lives of
others their endangering.

This has become one of my biggest pet peeves. They even showed a study yesterday on the Today show, showing that people are more slow to stop when texting, as
opposed to being intoxicated.
I just feel like it's a very selfish thing to do. When I hear of fatal car accidents, due to texting, it just seems like such a senseless way to die. |
