Texting and Driving Mix Like Water and Electricity

At one time we all did it, or most of us have. At one time we texted and drove before any laws were put into place. We may have underestimated how distracting it really was. We weren't thinking about the hazards.

I admit I texted and drove. Not even so much while actually driving but at stop lights I did. I didn't see what the issue was while texting while waiting at a stop, but now I get it. The light could change at anytime and what happens if you are in the middle of a text when it does?

I am glad that there are laws put into place for texting and driving. Whenever you take your eyes off of the road it is distracting and therefore quite dangerous.

Texting and driving is no different from driving drunk or high.

Unfortunately there are many people who think they are above the law and keep doing it anyway. They aren't only risking the fact that they could lose their license, but they are risking their lives and the lives of others.

So here is a message to anyone who is thinking of texting and driving. Put your effing phone down while on the road. If you have to text someone, go pull over to the side and stop. It's not rocket science because texting and driving mix just like water and electricity. It's hazardous!
