Only cell phones I have are expired (2 of them) trac-phones. Know why??? By law, they have to be able to dial 911. Two different phones bought for son when he left for college and they expired. As one expired, he got another and I got the expired ones. He now has his own $100.00 per month phone/plan and I have the two 'emergency' boondocks communication devices (hehehehehe). On trips I used them already, to call in emergency calls to HP or whomever is the jurisdictional LE agency (as forwarded by the dispatcher). I have a 'land line' at the house, thats all I need. Anyway, put me on the list! Anything that gets drivers more tuned in to the driving (while driving), I am all for!

+1 ^^^^^^

Use it? You cannot even spell it.
LOL

I have lasted this long without telling the world what I have done, am doing or will do. I also have no wish to be told the minute by minute occurrences in some other persons life. If it's that important they can tell me face to face later.

How idiotic is it for people to text one another when they are standing or sitting beside that person, get a life.

I also do not text...even when not driving. I prefer to talk to people on the phone or in person. Texting is dumbing down our already dumb youth and turning this world into a bunch of anti-social @ssholes.

In no way can I be put on this list. There is a time and a place for everything. People should have a little more common sence when to text. For example... Sitting in traffic waiting at the border and texting SparkieSRT6 just as he pulls into the booth... this is acceptable . Driving in town by a school in heavy traffic... Not acceptable.

LOL..... you're too much. My phone starts alerting me just as the Canada Border Customs Agent was asking me if I had anything to declare. I didnt hear the full question and had to have her repeat it. Timing couldn't have been worse......or better in your opinion.

I can't put my name on that list. I hate it when people are doing it going the down the road, but I do text while stopped to answer questions sent to me. Not something I want to do, but necessary for the job. You just can't call a person anymore. They won't answer the damn the phone. They will tell you, just text me... I usually respond, when I see them in person, that, you know I drive for a living, right? Company policy is no texting and driving...go figure. I like want you are doing though...keep up the good work...
