No, I don't mean Down with Tyranny, though I'm certainly in favor of that, too. I read Toby's post yesterday about the most important emerging technologies and how mobile devices are at the top of the list. Lo and behold isn't there an article in today's USA Today about multitaskers gone wild who are text messaging on their mobile devices while driving.
Perhaps you're guilty of steering with your pinkies as your thumbs text away. If you are, shame on you. Keep your paws on the wheel and eyes on the road and wait until you slide into that parking spot to respond to that message. Better yet, take the train to work and text message like crazy.
It seems Washington state is the first to ban driving while texting, or DWT. The law takes effect in January, making DWT a crime with a $101 fine. Other states are considering similar legislation.
Second on the list that Toby cites is online video. I can see it now. Driving while video watching, or DWVW, will target all those watching Scrubs episodes on their mobile devices while driving on the interstate.
You heard it here first.
Nice posting Guys...
