    I've said this before. They need to start treating cellphone accidents as DWI/DUI's. People using cellphones are hurting and killing people at the same rate as if it was a drunk driver......:biggrin_25524:

    They have the technology to block cell phone usage with movement. It's just a matter of time. When people have no sense, you have to give them some.

    We stopped and found a pay phone. Not only was it safer, it made the driver walk a little.:biggrin_25522:

    "WALK"?! :biggrin_2555:
    Sounds too labor intensive.
    There must be an easier way.
    Then again, they could multi-task by
    grabbin' a bag 0' chips and a diet soda, ---
    and maybe a couple of individual pies for the road
    while they're at it. That'd save a few steps in the long run.
    Ya reckon. :biggrin_25523:
