Well...Duh!

A report in British Medical Magazine states that drivers who talk on the phone while driving are four times more likely to crash, some seriously enough to injure themselves or others, compared to those who don't talk and drive.

Tell us something we don't know.

How many times have you been close to someone who swerves, brakes, turns, or cuts you off without even realizing it because finding out what their husband's want for dinner is just soooo important? Next they'll release a study that states only stupid morons can't talk on the phone and drive. Again, money wasted on a study that confirms what society already knows.

I am a firm believer that if you cause an accident while talking on the phone, a mandatory charge of reckless endangerment should ensue. No excuses. If you're to uncoordinated to talk and drive, stay off the phone. And what is so damn important anyway? Remember the old days when business transactions and morning conversations took place in the office? Seriously, what does a wet-haired blonde wearing a torn T-shirt driving a beat up Pinto at 7:30 in the morning really have to talk about?

It's bad enough one can't go to the grocery store without being surrounded by one-sided conversations. Or trying to watch a movie while the dip-shit in front of you text messages all their friends. Or eat in a restaurant while the electronic bird chirps go off every five minutes. Cell phones are such a nuisance.

Now we have to worry that some narcissistic soccer mom is going to run us over because she just has to tell her best friend that Timmy made a poopy in his potty for the first time.

Stay off the damn phone and just drive already.
