And, I'm damn sure not going to wear one of those ignorant looking little ear pieces so I don't miss a call (I get so tickled at the folks walking around in public with one of those things hanging off his/her head - reminds me of a Borg drone. What phone call can possibly be so important that one has to look like a fool in public?).
Personally, I carry several CDs - not more than three or four - with me for the truck and a couple of HQ MP3 discs for longer travel. That ought to get me through...
GPS devices are nice, but, there again, they're not high on my priority list.
I certainly don't fool with any other gadgets or gizmos while trying to drive. I just ain't that smart.
What I love are the folks who are traveling down an expressway or major traffic artery at 30 friggin' miles per hour, holding up traffic and basically blocking a lane. When you finally get a chance to get around them, inevitably, they'll be talking on a damn telephone. And they'll get indignant if you blow your horn at them or otherwise ask them to pay attention to what they're supposed to be doing and get off the phone.
I'd better shut up now...blood pressure on the rise... -
No. My take is a little different, as I also ride a motorcycle. The only thing that can keep you safe is the assumption that all drivers are stupid and/or out to kill you.
I'm not kidding.Pull! Bang! Darn! -

I talk on my cell, listen to music, scratch my balls and drive standard or automatic all in the same time, but I am excellent driver and I bet I can steer my car using my *knees* better than many people using their hands LOL
Driving is no different than any other skill - some people learn it well, some will never learn.
BTW this poll - I think its stupid.
I am never "distracted" when driving, and even while I was driving 1-handed and talking on a cell and listening to music all in the same time - I have avoided many times accidents with stupid drivers who had both hand on the steering wheel and obviously weren't "distracted"... yet they drove like idiots. One moron's distraction is nothing to another person. Stupid poll. -

I'll never forget the look on his face, it's humorous now but he had that "Oh Shit!" look on his face. Guess a big grill of a commercial truck bearing down on you will do that... -

One of my cars been hit (while curbside parked!) by an idiot who was picking up something from the floor (probably a cd or cigarettes) while driving... I saw it coming and watched the whole thing amazed.
and of course cops didn't gave him any ticket or anything, like nothing happened - almost as if they were saying to him "go on, destroy more property of others, you have insurance so don't worry, its all fine".
Accidents are when it is happening due to i.e. weather. Most of what we call "accidents" nowadays are usually examples of idiocy that goes most of the time unpunished (until they kill someone, and even then it is often unpunished) unfortunately. -
man, i have screens, amps, the laptop, ...even the ps2 w/ wireless guitar hero is in the truck! i can send text while i drive, i can drive with my knees and eat a bowl of cereal! i read magazines behind the wheel, i watch tv, i've even fallen asleep a few times! i regularly set the cruise control around 90 and my fastest yet was 140 mph is a 92 CAMARO!! hell, i hardly have to even look at the road when i drive and i just get there, no problem whatsoever... I AM THE BEST DRIVER IN THE WORLD!!!
I am just a worthless liar,
I am just an imbecil -
