you are not young in age Im going to guess, but you are new "young" to the road. Talking on your cell phone and admitting to driving not once but twice in another post about going over the posted speed limit. The users guide that comes with your cell phone tells you it is not to be used while driving..law enforcement officials tell you not to use them while driving...and there are studies and research that show the dangers of driving while on a cell phone. You are not as responsible as you make yourself out to be. Neither am I. I am guilty of talking and driving or dialing and driving. I am not perfect but I try my best not to make or recieve calls while driving. Even with my hands free. Even my parents who have been driving for over 30 years dont talk and drive. They probably havent had an accident that was their fault in over 20. They dont allow me to talk on the phone and drive if theyre in the car with me. Its all a safety issue. No matter how responsible you are or think you are a distraction is a distraction and it will change the way you drive no matter what you say.

i shouldnt have to defend myself on my post because it is correct. Just like me, you are an irresponsible driver.
