HAH that's so true, even though I am guilty of doing such, I do try to only text if it is important and I do the red light thing.... It is a rather bad habit to get into and I don't recommend they get used to it

Well I admit some drivers can be completely and utterly moronic in their choice to put more attention to their phones than at the wheel.

But not everyone is retarded when it comes to hand/eye coordination.

I may be guilty of texting at the wheel. But I'm also guilty of not getting caught doing it.

I can drive and text at the same time all while keeping my attention on the road at all times.

With that being said, Kahuki has nothing to fear about me running him over if I'm texting at the wheel.

It's up to the driver (including me as well) to be responsible for his/her actions at the wheel when driving.

I can drive responsibly without having my phone in hand, and I do most of the time.

It's really those more important texts that I choose to answer when I'm driving.

So pretty much everyone is safe from me when I'm on the road.

Yes but everyone always says that. I talked to, for example, a man who thought his view of abortion (none whatsoever, even in rape, incest, or life of the mother and child is in danger) was not extremist at all. I asked him what was more extreme and he wouldn't answer.

People guilty of this will always give the excuse "well I'm not like that, I'm responsible with it." It's justification.

True. Because it's that "one defining moment" where they lose their concentration and kill someone.

That's really the reason why I don't do it nearly as much as I did before they passed the law.
