It's incredible to think that we need a law against texting while driving. How can anyone in their right mind imagine they can responsibly operate a car weighing two tons with a couple of hundred horsepower while typing on a tiny keyboard. It's bad enough when people are talking and driving. You can spot these idiots a half a mile away weaving, hitting the brakes for no reason, sitting at a green light or holding up traffic with their erratic acceleration and braking. Most of my driving is in heavy traffic and the cell phone gabbers and texters contribute mightily to the logjam. How can you use your turn signal when you have one (or both) hands on your cell phone, ah why bother. I think some of it has to do with the general inconsideration for others that's part of our culture today.
I am against any laws that infringe on our rights to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness of which there are far too many these days, but cell phone usage should be banned while driving a car although I suppose hands free units might be OK. Please try to pay attention while driving and save your insignificant messaging until the car is shut off. Come on people wake the fuck up.
