Text Safe Or Get A Ticket


A recent survey was done on this nation due to a crazy notion that a train engineer was texting. He crashed with some cars and caused 25 deaths. The great question here is why the hell was he sending and receiving text messages?
It seems that people all around the United States still send and receive text in just about any situation no mater the risk. According to that survey released Tuesday it showed that 77% of people have used a such device while driving a moving car. 
If you want to know of the crazier situations 41% of people said they have used a mobile e-mail device wile skiing, on horseback or riding a bike. For some future numbers it is said that the proportion of the corporate work force using company-supplied mobile devices will grow to nearly 40% by 2010 from just under 25% now. People say that in this economic crisis workers may feel more squeezed and under pressure to use their mobile devices even more. They say the reason for this is as people get laid off. The workers still employed have to do more forcing them to do more outside the office.
This is a strong message to anyone out there even if you don't work. Please don't text while you are doing something else. The point of texting is so that doesn't happen. I think it will be ok if you take the extra 2 min to get where ever your going. Then you can focus on that precious phone of yours again.
