STOP TEXTING WHILE DRIVING!

I'll have you know that I am a great texting driver. Back off!!

Many people don't realize that maneuvering 2000+ pounds of metal comes with responsibility. Cars aren't toys and while they are for the most part safe, should be respected for the mobile killing machines they are.

My little sister killed someone texting and driving... and ruined her life as well. She had only been 18 for 3the days. Charged with vehicular manslaughter. The lady who died was speeding and without a seatbelt. Doesnt matter anyway... the guilt and regret Ky feels over taking a life is way worse than judicial consequence. Don't text and drive! So not worth it!

I doubt that JohnnyBravo78.

I'm just kidding. I hate those fu*kers. I usually swerve at them or stare them down when I see that.

I've seen someone driving with their knees so they could text. Middle aged people, teens, college students, older people... doesn't matter I've seen them all glued to their phone. Sometimes it's not even texting. I caught a guy watching a movie on his iPhone while he drove.

My mother actually gets mad at them and will honk her horn until they look up and she'll gesture putting the phone down and driving. You can imagine the reactions she's gotten back. But you can tell when it's happening. The car begins to go in the next lane or onto a curb, they're either speeding or constantly hitting the break thinking that'll help, and they're the last to notice a traffic light change. The interstate's worse.

I mean really people, who dictated you had to respond to a text within .5 seconds of receiving one? I won't even answer a text if I'm out at a restaurant or having a discussion with someone. It's rude. Driving and texting is stupid and deadly, same as drinking and driving.

You reminded me of how my Aunt's oldest child got killed. He was going to a football game with friends and was hit head on by a drunk driver. It threw my cousin out the window and the car rolled on him, killing him instantly. Another person in the car died too. The thing was, my cousin's blood alcohol level was the same as the man who killed him, so both parties were guilty. The guy found my Aunt and apologized for what he did and she told him she wasn't angry, that her son had made a mistake too only he paid a different way. And it's true. I hope your sister can eventually make peace with her mistake.

I seen a state senator doing this and he almost hit us so when i looked at him and pointed to his phone he gave me the finger and sped off. There have seen several deaths because of this i read that a girl killed a family who was coming home from the hospital with their newborn baby, this child didnt even get to start its life.

7 years ago I was stopped at a red light, a guy ran into the back end of my car driving 90Km/hr and I actually had his ford explorer in the back seat of my car. It has changed my life.

I was lucky, I walked away with 3 severely destroyed fingers from them being dislocated and then re-located violently back into place during the accident (they were all pushed into the knuckles and got stuck in a claw like fashion), I have trauma induced scoliosis of my lower spine (my spine was actually twisted due to the force of the accident), my shoulder is forever messed up, and so is a nerve in my elbow. I constantly have problems with my hand - it randomly lets go of things, throws things or cramps closed and I cannot open it.

Like I said I was lucky, I was able to walk away and continue to walk to this day. I really wish more people would take this seriously.

What about the guy who hit you? Survive?

Yup, walked away with 6 stitches in his forehead. He was 18 years old, he will be getting his license back April 4,2012. He has to start back as a learner and go through the graduated license system we have here. He was charged with the max they had at the time - but in my opinion it was not enough and I was actually told by the cops had I been hurt just a little more they could have thrown him in jail.

Well hopefully he will take something away from it. Btw, April 4 , 2012 was 3 months ago...just throwing that out there.

Should have been 2013 not 2012... I am typing in the dark and not paying attention lol. I really hope he did learn from it. I would just like more people to take the law seriously.
