A well known runner, tiathlete, bike racer here in northern Alabama was killed several days ago by a girl reaching for her cell phone while she was driving.

Perhaps, perfectly innocent. But if I was walking around with a loaded gun in my pocket that went off and killed somebody (ala Plaxico) do you honestly think I would be sitting at home watching the news? Yet that is where she is.

We still have not gotten to the point where we (most of us) agree that cell phone useage and driving can be a very dangerous combination.

However, you can not easily legislate this one. What will be the test? (like the sobriety test)? Most with good lawyers will get out of it. Right Jamo?
