Almost one third of the traffic deaths that happened on Idaho roadways during this year's "100 Deadliest Days," which is the nickname for the time period between Memorial Day and Labor Day, were due to distracted driving.
Another state is considering legislation that will allow police to use a device to determine whether or not a person has been texting while driving. Do you think this technology should come to Idaho?
Everyone agrees that texting and driving is NEVER a good idea. Yet it happens all the time in Twin Falls. A few days ago I saw a girl texting on Poleline while driving 60MPH. Crazy!
We always hear about the dangers of texting while driving but we never hear much about some of the other distractions that are just as bad, if not worse than texting.
