some won't, some will, and some will when it's too late...kind of like stupid people that text and drive....sad really
Texting while driving is knowingly putting yourself, your passenger(s) [if there are any], as well as other drivers and bystanders on the road in danger. This is a deliberate action to take away your eyes and focus from the road and onto your phone to text. Canoeing with your family and wading in water while parked on a sandbar without a life jacket is not in the same ballpark as texting while driving.
It's a tragedy, people. It could've been 99.9999...% prevented, I think everyone gets that, but sh*t happens.
Let me ask all of you this: from the bottom of your heart, with all honesty, behind your PC with full anonymity, with nothing to lose or gain, can you say that during your entire life, you have never consumed any amount of alcohol and knowingly drove while intoxicated or under the influence? I highly doubt that many of you could say that 100% without a doubt, that you have never, ever got behind the wheel knowing that you had been drinking within the past few hours. No one goes through life not doing something that could've wiped you off this earth and in most cases, many of us do get away while doing stupid risky stuff. Sh*t happens. Anytime you step out of your door, even just on a stroll or heading to work, your chances of something bad happening to you increases.
