That means that they do not have to take their eyes off of the road while they are driving.  If you get a call or a text message while you are driving you have to take your eyes off of the road to answer it so it is much more dangerous.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Christine]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 12th 2009 3:58AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is 'Dialing While Driving' the Worst Thing a Motorist Can Do?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[there is nothing wrong with talking on your phone while driving....its like everything else... some people just cant do it...they know who they are and it seems like they are the ones who do it most.....for the rest of us talking on a cell while driving is an extremely easy task....now texting is a completely different ball game....if you text while driving then you deserved to be in that crash. <br><br> *Driving while intoxicated on marijuana can cause increased attention of the road and surroundings and can also cause slower speeds and the following of the rules of the road.  Dont believe what the government is telling you about this product.....they lie all the time.

If you want to text while you drive then let someone else drive PERIOD. Any time you take your eyes off the road it is a distraction but the way most people talk on their cell phones they are distracted more than they are paying attention.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chad]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 12th 2009 12:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is 'Dialing While Driving' the Worst Thing a Motorist Can Do?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[Even a hands free cell 'phone is dangerous since it diverts attention from the driver. It isn't like taking to a passenger who has situational awareness. Using a cell 'phone while driving should be utlawed nationwide and strictly enforced.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rudy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 13th 2009 7:23AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is 'Dialing While Driving' the Worst Thing a Motorist Can Do?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[Talking on the 'phone while driving. whether it be a hands-free one or not, is distracting to the driver and must be avoided. There is a two way conversation with no situational awareness on the part of one party which is not the case when taling to a passenger in the vehicle. I've had several close calls with cars in which the driver had a cell 'phone to his ear. We did fine before cell 'phone and drivers need to refrain from their use while driving.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Rudy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 17th 2009 11:11PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Is 'Dialing While Driving' the Worst Thing a Motorist Can Do?]]></title><link>http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.switched.com/2009/05/11/is-dialing-while-driving-the-worst-thing-a-motorist-can-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[I work at a hospital and we are getting more and more of these driving & texting teens, oftentimes with very serious injuries. Paralyzed for life, retarded for life due to head injuries, burdening the society. One teen survived serious injuries but will be able to walk. The retarded mother smiles and says, she does it too and sees nothing wrong with it. And we are supposed to have compassion for people like that! Very very hard to do! Driving and texting should be outlawed! These people should go straight to prison.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[ccvvggg]]></dc:creator><pubDate>May 24th 2009 12:29PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
