I knew it! Its basically just what I would expect....the only thing that has lessened is cell phone usage.

IMHO The second I recognize that an opinion is based on a "Study" I basically tune out. Al Gore was a major influence in making me react this way.

I think the DDL is a good thing. When you are stopped at a red light, You shouldn't be staring at your lap, (Mobile Device) You should be preparing for what is going to happen next, who is beside you, behind you, in front of you, who is signaling a left turn, what the pedestrian is going to do etc, etc.

.....Not to mention "What is going to happen next" a.k.a anticipating the next move by the people you are sharing the Deerfoot with at 120 KmH.
