    I believe in "technology" - There is now coming a device that will allow police to detect/intercept texts - What a great way to 1. find the "druggies" 2. get one of the most mind-sucking things out of the hands of the "ignorants" 3. get some much-needed revenue for "GOOD" things and generally help to "clean-up" the Gene-pool....

    I and friends have nearly been killed by careless,dangerous morons that are texting or talking on their cell phones.I have had friends and their children killed by people doing this.Cell phone use should be illegal.These people often have a hard time using their brains and commen sense when they are not under the influence of some chemical,putting make up on, fishing around for a cigarrette,changing the radio station etc or just on a daily basis and should not be allowed to text or use their cell phone when driving,Stuid is stupid,you can't fix that!When your mind is NOT 100% on your driving you ARE a danger to everyone!
