Uh huh. That's what they were saying, 10-20 years ago.

Meanwhile, people are driving around right now, paying no attention to their driving. There is nothing supposedly moot about this bill.[/quote]

Yes, ban texting. [b]But pushing to ban eating, talking, radio, etc is pointless[/b].

Just because numbers confuse you doesn't mean you're not unsafe. [/quote]
