Pretty intense PSA...hope someone learns from it.

The PSA has been posted on several boards. For teenage drivers, young adults and their parents, I think it's a must see. The devastation caused by a few moments of inattention can be life altering, to say the least. And, it's a good way to get parents to be an example to their kids. Don't text and drive.

We can't manage to convince the vast majority of driver to not DRINK and DRIVE. What makes you think that this will be any different?

Well I'm not surprised they had women drivers...

What bothers me the most about it though is they'll reprimand you for texting/talking and driving but what about eating? or smoking? how about the radio thats a distraction to.

No way a teenaged girl was wearing a seat belt.

I don't mind texting and driving. Mainly because the teenagers who do it help me make overtime when they smack a telephone pole. Had one girl hit a pole at 70mph going into a 90degree right hand curve (like Deal's Gap sharp). She ended up living because the pole was rotted and broke right in half allowing the car to go through. But I made 5hours OT!!!

Texting is WAY worse... I can multi-task, but texting is way more of a distraction... your eyes have to leave the road too long...

Did anyone notice the "old" man driving on the wrong side of the road? The girls where driving on the left side, went into the right side and crashed which is where they stopped. Then the old man in the bergundy car nailed the shit out of them.

Basically we shouldn't let women or old people drive.
