It's scary on the roads now, fast driving and people not paying attention. Glad you're OK.

And then you have our new plague; the cell phone ! In NY state they started posting sign on the hi-way; Let it Wait, Text Stop coming up in 5 miles.
As though there aren't enough distractions while driving with the new computer screens in the middle of the dashboard.

I introduced myself a little while back my name is Karen Minard. I am posting in this spot again because I have been gone all this time for an unfortunate reason. When you look at my photo you will understand why. When you get hit from behind at 50 miles an hour this is what happens to the guys car that hit me not to mention completely totaled the truck I was in. While he reached down to his floor to get the cell phone he dropped he missed recognizing that traffic was stopped at a light. I took this photo with my iPhone 7 Plus before I was taken to the hospital.

So glad you are still with us. I believe that cell phone use and texting is as or more addictive than any other addictive substance.
I wonder what would happen if this guy were locked away without his phone.

glad you are alright.

nice to see that the culprit was also o.k. enough to be on his cell phone while you were on your way to the hospital. (just a little sarcasm there).

His cell phone! Who would have thought that a cell phone could cause an accident?

If he did retrieve his phone, he would have started texting, and the same thing would have happened.

Wait, what? is this the old- it's not people who shoot people, it's the gun?

it's the jerk using the cellphone that is the problem, not the phone.

Wow. did I really say all that? must be manopause hitting my brain (or mouth) again.
