Fatal may not have had an increase, but why aren't they looking at vehicular accidents in general. I know the insurance industry would be interested in those numbers.

On my way to work, I was almost hit by two different drivers with a phone plastered to their ear. One incident was because another driver infront of me was yapping away and not watching.

I want to go with the laws that are out there that other than dialing (not texting) you have to use a hands-free kit to use your phone.

I am not going to say all this without admitting I have used my phone while driving, but other than looking at the caller ID, I put my phone on speaker and set the phone in ashtray that I have padded just for that purpose.

I like the convenience, but again, like Ron White so nicely put it, "You Can't Fix Stupid!".
