texting while driving....? do you do it?

[Ada652]

Do you text while driving??    I try not to... but sometimes I do it!

[vandal49588]

Nope! I have no use for a cell phone.

[arcro]

If someone wants to talk to me, they should do it in person.

[yelenaily]

I know that I shouldn't, I just can't help it :-)
I have some sort of OCD... A txt message MUST be answered!

[jaymz462]

Nope- it's completely dangerous.

   I have to say that I have done it before, I try not to, but sometimes it just has to happen..   

[Falconer02]

Nah it's too dangerous in my book. A friend of mine does it and it scares me to no end while I'm in the passenger seat. Be careful, people!

It's completely forbidden in our state of CA to drive and text simultaneously or risk a fine.

[mrisha]

No, never have and never will.  I don't even talk on my cell phone while driving especially if I don't have an ear piece or its somehow hands free which I seldom have with me at the time.

Driving while texting is the same as driving with your eyes closed.

This should be a no brainer.  Nothing is that important.  It is selfish to put others at risk for dangerous behavior.  It should be against the law everywhere.  You may think you are in control, but it can only take a split second or two to cause an accident.

[dreamyxo]

I have done it maybe two or three times but that has been very rare and I won't do again.

Crazy to do this. Lady totaled my wife's Camry in May because she was texting and didn't realize in time that traffic had stopped. Had a 2 year old in the van with her. Totally insane. 

[lightningclix]

Absolutely NOT!

[jkhanson]

Texting while driving sounds like a recipe for disaster!  Don't do it!

My wife used to text me while she was driving, until we went to this house of horrors sort of thing (called the 99 for anyone who's heard of it, where they show the 13 most preventable causes of deaths that kill 99 teens every day) where they showed two cars destroyed in a head-on collision caused by texting and driving, the passengers either dead or dying with blood all over them and the cars.  The driver of one car struggled to get out of his car, called 911 and then slumped dead through the broken window with blood draining from him.  Freaked me out so badly, I made my wife promise she would NEVER ever text again while driving, and she has almost never done so since then.  Now she waits until she is stopped at a red light, or she'll pull off the road first.
