There was no doubt.This guy was on his cell ,I saw the whites of his eyes as my truck swerved to avoid him.He was on the goddamn phone.

No tomatos or tomatoes here.This dousch almost killed Jane and I because he was on the phone and could not properly drive his vehicle.

And yes BF the accident/death HAS grown by leaps and bounds since the inception of the cell phone.Time to ban handheld cells while driving.You won't change my mind.

I am not sure if you realize that we are on the same page BW?? I agree cell phones should be banned from use while driving...but hands free is not the answer! Talking on the phone while driving is as much a distraction as reading, putting on makeup, etc. People need to focus...we agree there also!

Almost time to get our fish on!!!

No.Hands free is the answer.It allows for both hands on the wheel and both eyes on the road.Very simple.After today you can't convince me otherwise, its time to ban handheld cells while driving.

I'm done with this one.I've already said it...my life is worth more than some a-hole's conversation.

Done and out.
