Weekly Resolution 1/25/10

AVOID ALL FORMS OF DISTRACTED DRIVING

We used to worry about drunk driving, still do actually. And then it was cell phone usage which started causing a lot of the accidents.

The truth is that all forms of distracted driving are potentially dangerous. Cell phones, texting, emailing, eating, using the GPS -- admit it, we all do it at one time or another. We are just so busy that we can't waste the precious time. I am teaching my teenage daughter how to drive and realizing that I need to be a good role model.

So I am making myself a promise -- avoid all forms of distracted driving. No more checking my iPhone, texting, or any of the other things that can distract me from paying attention to the road.

Our lives are too precious.

What's your experience? Jim.
