Text Messaging (SMS)

A great way to communicate, if rather hard on the thumbs.

But SMS and driving doesn’t mix:

Several minutes before the first 911 call about the crash, Goodman talked briefly with a fellow graduate trailing her in another vehicle. Two minutes before the crash was reported, her phone was used to send a text greeting to a friend, Povero said.

He sent a reply less than a minute before the first 911 call, the sheriff added.

Routine tests ruled out alcohol as a factor in the 10 p.m. crash, and police don’t suspect drug use was involved…

  1. OK OK OK! I get the message. I know how much of a pet hate this is of yours.

    I actually dont do it that much anymore because every time I do I get your voice in my head with that disapproving tone saying “Jacqui, DONT!”

    In saying that I did reply to you tonight while driving. My Bad? :(
