ftr, ass, I don't text with her in the car

I do it all the time. Predicative text made it much easier.
I believe it's wrong and I must quit it. |

My BT is just about my favorite possession. I'm getting quickly to 'crazy person' status, walking around talking to friends and family no matter what I'm doing. Just a tap to the ear, 'Call mom, home' voila someone to chat with during drive time.

I definitely do not txt while driving. Ever since I have had my new car with Bluetooth I am a firm believer in hands free for even phone calls. A matter of fact I am getting one of these, Motorola T505 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16875982146 for my wife's car.

no.... interesting Gaz option.

I'll text when I'm at a stop light, rarely when I'm driving.
I know someone who does constantly, and she's never been in a wreck... she has a Sidekick and can type like 80 wpm on it, and doesn't do it in traffic or on the highway (much ;) ). I think if you aren't glaring at your cellphone while texting, or steering with your knees because you have to use both hands, it's not much different than changing a CD or glancing at someone you're talking to. I think some people's brains are wired to multitask and other people's are not... Those who don't pay enough attention while driving are going to be at a higher risk of being involved in an accident, regardless of what they're doing. Putting a cell phone in their hand just gives people an object to point to when they get into a wreck, instead of simply saying "they weren't paying attention". They get into wrecks because they're changing a CD or talking to someone in the backseat or reaching for a french fry or talking on the phone or texting. I've done all of those things, as I'm sure many people do, and I've never been involved in a wreck. The whole issue is overblown, IMO. If you aren't devoting enough attention to driving while texting, you probably weren't devoting enough attention to driving before texting. |
I do this very rarely and only if im stuck in traffic and not actually driving, like after games when the parking lot is gridlocked or an interstate backup. Though i wonder what causes those gridlocks and backups lol.

I txt all the way back when I am doing my drive of shame from st joseph to KC. I got bitches to hit up, homies to get at, not screw around with just driving

Sometimes the driving distracts me from my texting.
|
FYI, I don't drive distracted, Jilly. I realize I have a responsibility to myself and others when I'm on the road.
