PIC: I wonder when people will learn ?

photo no longer available

Sad to say that my daughter in her 30's does it even with the kids in the car and she thinks she is in control and it won't happen to her.

Take a video

Some time follow her and take a video while she is texting and driving. You can almost always tell the people who are texting and driving, they either are wandering in the lane going slow while everyone else has to go around them, or just plain look like they are driving drunk. Then show it to her. Maybe that will make the point.

Good suggestion Duncan. I doubt that it would do any good however as these people think they are far superior to the rest of us in their ability to multitask. Frankly I don't care if they choose to kill themselves but putting others at risk is unacceptable

Agreed and my daughter is so stubborn. she won't listen to anybody or anything,

Problem is she put's the kid's and others in real danger even more as she has only been driving for the last two years so not a lot of experience anyhow. Plus she does drink and drive and has had several tickets but still keeps going.
