They should be disciplined very, very severely. Jeez, I can't text and change channels on my tv without screwing both up!

No, severe penalties...points on licences etc.


BUT! If you wanna be totally over the top about it, you could always hand them over for medical experiments along with philanderers.rolling on the floor laughing

I'm a motorcyclist, so a little militant on the subject. I don't feel I should be hurt or killed because someone wants to talk or text about Friday's party.

So, my penalty is simple: Shoot on sight. grin

One of the drivers, delivering a building from the company I deal with ,was run off the road by a text messaging woman.

He and his truck landed upside down in the ditch, building back in kit form. He was only hurt minorly.

The woman was beheaded and her cut off right hand landed in the road with half of a text message on the phone still in her hand. Her nine year old daughter got to see it all and see all the after math as she stood on the side of the road afterward until help arrived.

ISN'T TEXT MESSAGING WONDERFUL!!!!mumbling






P.S. The driver quit his job.

Over here there is a ban to talk on the phone while driving. The big problem is that you still find people driving while chatting on the phone. If they get caught they are usually fined for being on the phone while driving. I don't know if the ban covers texting or not.

I don't think it should be done. How can you put your full attention to your driving if you are thinking of what to text or reading it.

~~~I think if a driver is texting their license should be suspended. That way they can text all they want.
Has anyone ever encountered the walking texter that steps out into traffic? very mad
