I can't really oppose this one. If any of you have ever spent time on California highway, the problem is rampant. Most of the drivers with phone in hand are on it the entire trip-it's almost ingrained behavior here. And it has done nothing to improve it. The main purpose of driving should be getting to a destination, and most of us can't drive and talk long distance at the same time. I can't, and I don't.
Look at this another way. Recently, there was a thread about walking around in Condition White, and "checking your six". Most of us here are in condition Yellow when we're out and about, and notice that most people are blissfully unaware. Well, most of these White Walkers are White Drivers, too. Hell, they can barely drive with just the stereo blasting and balancing the breakfast burrito and coffee. Add in a cellphone conversation, and driving is the last thing on their mind.
Hey, if they want to kill themselves, fine. Please do it in the privacy of your own home, without involving other people.
