DON’T text them in!

Tuesday Sep 2, 2008

Every day there are thousands who drive on our nation’s highways like they own the road: speeding, weaving in and out, tailgating or blowing their horns in anger. Is it any surprise that, according to the National Highway Transportation Safety Administration, one third of all accidents and two thirds of all vehicle-related fatalities are caused by aggressive drivers? What is a responsible driver to do about them?

A new system called Text Them In wants you to anonymously report dangerous drivers by sending a text message from your cell phone - while you drive! While you’re texting in the tag number/state/car/color/location and what happened you could be causing this -

I looked at te dangeroushe website and they say “Do Not Text While Driving” futhermore their video they consider texting while driving to be dangerous behavior which should be reported. (eventhough most states still don’t have laws against it). Something needs to be done about this driving problem!!

I completely agree that we need to do something about driving, and that texting while driving is dangerous.

But tell me, how am I to remember to text in all the info they require - tag number/state/car/color/location and what happened if I don’t do it right away?
