Re: Man Murders A Drunk Driver After Car Crash
texting deaths (which are GROWING) are about to overtake drunk driving deaths (which are shrinking)

Re: Man Murders A Drunk Driver After Car Crash
About two years ago when I bought my smartphone and opened the packaging, there was a screen guard that said "Don't Text and Drive". I was like damn there must be too many people killin each other while texting for companies to be warning against it like that.

it isn't as hard as you would think...you can see when texts are being sent and recieved on the phone
if someone is just reading and not sending anything that might be harder...also easier to forgive

neither are rare
right now it looks like drunk-driving is around 9k a year and text-driving around 4k...just my guesses based on the current trends and directions, I can't find 2012 numbers, just 2011
I bet in 5 years they will be about equal

Yes, I'm a douche.
