A friend of mine was rear ended last week by a young person texting. Fortunately, even though all were taken to the hospital, no one was hurt very badly. Sure messed up both cars. "Needing" to reply to a text is worth getting killed over.
I saw this picture on FB the other day. It amazes me that people still continue to text and drive, that includes talking on the phone; checking your messages. Are they that important that they must be on Social Media 24/7. Unfortunately for this young girl that will never be. It does scare me everytime my boys go out their friends. Thanks for sharing - I hope more people see this!
Thanks Pam. Yes. About two years ago I was almost hit head on by a girl texting. I sat on my horn and she finally looked up, slammed on her brakes and gave me a dirty look.
I was reset ended at a bank drive thru years ago. She knocked me past the drop. Got out of her car and told me it was "ok, because I was talking to my mom"!!!

ReplyDeleteI was mortified when I saw this picture. People text all the time while driving. In an instant they could be gone.
