Has anyone ever known someone that was killed or badly injured in a accident caused by texting while driving?

If so.. Im very sorry for your loss

they say it makes your chances of getting in an accident 23 times greater in that Allstate commercial but who knows where thay come up with that shit

Anyway long story short I got pulled over this morning for speeding and texting while driving

52 in a 40 construction zone and when he pulled me over he says "well you were speeding back there and I saw you texting, Were you texting?"  so I say "ya I was looking at a text" he says thanks for being honest drops the 4pt $400 speeding ticket and just gives me the 1pt $60 use of ccell phone while driving ticket.

I got pretty lucky but it has me thinkin how this can be very dangerous I text go online look at scores play poker all while driving and Im gonna stop not because I got the ticket but because I think it really is dangerous and I dont want ot be that asshole that kills some kid just because the AVS are in OT and I want to watch the ticker

You only just figured this out?!? Hope you end up driving into the wrong part of town during the middle of the night while you're busy on PokerStars...

Speeding in a construction, texting, and playing online poker all the while?

Hopefully you've learned your lesson, bro. Honestly I feel like those types of people should all end up crashing into each other to teach them all a lesson.

I think some smartphones might have apps to do this

Crow, I know my Blackberry has a function where it can read out texts and emails, although I don't know about the reverse. In any event, I wouldn't be surprised if lawmakers end up introducing legislation to install some sort of jamming device into newer cars (unless you're dialing 911).

G+G I missed that one but thanks for being a douche in my thread to I was feeling jealous

Nostradomas and Hugh at least I admit to my mistakes and I said I was going to stop so what if it took me getting a ticket to realize how bad I had gotten at least I did realize before I killed someone

I can tell about 90% of the time when I'm driving behind someone who is on their phone TALKING.  They can't even talk and drive at the same time.....much less text.

I'd bet that a good percentage of the people here that are talking shit have driven drunk on many a night.
