That's why men, like me, drive manual transmissions, therefore, we will eliminate the temptation to use cell phones, manual transmission will probably always be a male centered thing however.

I drive an automatic but I never (or at least I try not to) do things that will cause me to get in an accident and put other people's lives at risk. If you need to talk on your phone get a Bluetooth (I have three). If you need to read directions get a talking GPS system (I have one.) And texting on your cell phone is absolutely ridiculous and it pisses me off to see people do it (unfortunately it's always people my age that do it...looks bad on the rest of us.)

I totally agree Danielle. Are things really that important that people need to text each other right away?? Why not wait until you get to your destination and send the text, or just call them quickly (using Bluetooth if needed)?? Well, that is just my opinion.

Sux about the car though. Glad to hear everyone's ok. I guess this begs the question, what's next? |

If I had a car like that, and anyone else drove it, I would personally flay them. They can ride in it however.

Thank god for insurance.
I have 3 yrs being an advanced driver trainer, a C3 licence here which allows me to drive up to CORR truck and Nascar development over there and all motorsports forms here (although I haven't in a while) but I will NOT talk on the phone while driving, with or without bluetooth. It's proven to disturb your concentration to the effect of being drunk, and I am yet to find a Bluetooth device (Nokia anyway) that doesn't have it's moments of cutting out.
