We,too,have had a number of deaths on our roads from people who text others while driving..I reached for my phone one day while in town,,(a few years ago now)and just about rear ended another car..That was it for me..I leave it in my pocket or on the seat,or floor..where I cant reach it.. If that guy was receiving and answering texts while he was driving,,He should have stopped,and either finished his phone business,or turned it off,and ignored it,,cos,the guy who was texting him,might not have known he was on the highway,driving..So,in my book,the young guy should not have been ,either driving,or texting..Quite simple..Its time the lawmakers put some teeth into the laws,and enforced them..Yup.I know,,you are never going to get them all,but hurt them in the pocket hard enough,and make an example of them,and see what happens.
