And if you're not in an accident?
Either way, we're both making the assumption that one can actually PROVE that you're texting when you're driving 140km/h down the left lane on Deerfoot.
So who is the crazy driver now? Huh??!!?!?

Just stop. You know as well as everyone else that looking at your goddamn phone while driving is friggin dangerous. Not only to you but to everyone else. It's not nearly the same as seatbelts. I haven't read the rest of the thread beyond this because your posts are pissing me off (so I'm not sure if the following argument has been made), but a seatbelt is something that saves YOU. It doesn't stop you from hitting someone else. Therefore: wearing it or not wearing it makes no difference to MY safety. But outlawing YOU diddling with your phone while heading toward ME at whatever speed does.

Wait, what did I say about seatbelts?
Of course, I could make the argument that the government has no right to force you to wear a seatbelt because its like forcing you to quit eating fast food, or to quit smoking, even though both can kill you.
But that would require a whole new thread, because I can only piss you off once per thread.
Once in a while I like saying over the top things to get a reaction.
