Ron,
Numbers or no numbers, can you honestly tell me that you have never almost been hit by an idiot not paying attention because they were on a cell phone? I have been numerous times, as I said, in the car and on the bike. JUST a little bit more nerve wracking when on the bike. That is the point. I do not care what laws are already out there or not. If it is considered acceptable for people to drive distracted, society accepts and considers it the norm then guess what; people will still continue to be distracted idiots instead of the ol' ordinary garden variety idiot. If that's the case, why the heck do we have laws against driving while intoxicated. I'm not distracted, I just react a little more slowly. Why bother with any laws or societal norms at all for that matter. I cannot have my freedoms crushed. C'mon, I'm threatened, you are threatened, as we all are. I am not necessarily promoting a law and I am way surprised by the reaction of some of this board. I am saying that it is a dangerous trend that we are following in this respect and many of you can only whine and cry because you are supermen capable of juggling a bowling ball, chainsaw and a parakeet while driving. Don't taze me bro and all that crrrrap. Just leave me to do my own thing man. Don't crush my freedom dude. Blah blah blah. More power to ya. Leave things just the way they are. But please, please, please stay the freak away from me so that you not only don't crush my freedom but you don't crush me!
