I walk my dog for about an hour every day. When I happen to look in a car going by, half the time someone is looking at their phone. It's a lot of people who are not looking at the road -- and it almost ALWAYS women. Girls can't stay off their damn phone for a second. My wife and I were in her friend's Suburban, and she spent the first minute of the ride sending text messages. I told her if she was going to do that, then pull the fuck over right now and let us out. There was a serious argument that ruined our day, but she put the phone away.
I think all of our chances of being killed by a distracted idiot has seriously gone up since cell phones came out. Car makers should have some kind of tech that inhibits text messaging in phones while the car is in motion. Sounds far fetched, but it would probably be the only thing to stop these fucking morons from killing the rest of us.
