[Vision2020] PR - Texting-While-Driving Ban Begins July 1

[Paul Rumelhart]

I remember reading a study somewhere that basically concluded that if you think you are a good multitasker, you aren't and that the best multitaskers are the ones that don't think they are doing a good job at it.  The bad multitaskers think they are doing great until they run their car off the road or run over a group of nuns or something.  The good ones feel the stress of actually watching everything at once in an attempt to be safe.

I hate just having a conversation while I'm driving with someone physically in the car that can help me watch the road, let alone texting.  I'd probably find it easier to play Angry Birds while driving than to text someone.

It is impossible for me to talk on a cell phone and drive!

I can't imagine people text while driving, obviously, they do!

*laughing*

Of course, I never could chew gum, and walk at the same time, either!

Happy Friday to All!
