I think any information to have our roads safer is great.

I hope this video gets the message across.
The problem is the drinking and driving MADD and other videos have not really lowered the imparied driving or accidents from drinking and driving.
I have not attended a accident from text messaging it is usually drinking causing fatal accidents.

Everyone has to help tell friends and others not to text or drink and drive.
Young people have the idea,that won't happen to me.
My 2 cents

Should be manditory viewing before young drivers are given a licence.

Not saying that it's JUST young people but texting is more prevelent among the younger generation. It's been proven that talking on a cell phone is a distraction.....texting you need to see the screen making it that much worse.

Good thread.. My teenagers are going to watch that.
