Teens: Texting and Driving
This is a very interesting and disturbing piece I saw on the local Springfield news. The Missouri Highway Patrol took several teens through a obstacle course (in the rain) while the teens sent and received text messages. It is surprising that sitting with a Missouri Highway Patrolman in the car and failing a test doesn't seem to phase them. I don't know what it will take to convince these kids; killing or severally injuring someone else by their negligence? I hope I am not around to find out the definition of what "probably a hardcore wreck" means to the one teen that said that is what it would take to make him stop.
Parents talk to your kids about using their cell phones while driving. You may be liable for their motor vehicle accidents.
