I don't feel distracted, but there are those that would beg to differ. I also realize that there have been far too many accidents and deaths cell phone related so something has to be done. No call or text is worth dying or killing someone for.
Texting, emailing or chatting on a cellphone while driving is simply too dangerous to be allowed, federal safety investigators declared Tuesday, urging all states to impose total bans except for emergencies.
