They really went all out on that one...I wonder how much that cost.
So what's the tally:
One set of parents
One baby
One child now an orphan
One friend killed
One person badly injured

I think they could have added a puppy crossing the road when it happened too...haha

Those videos send a STRONG message!
I hope North America would air these types of videos out to the viewers, especially those that use their damn "Crackberry" while driving....

i never understood why people would think it's ok to talk/text while driving.

i guess it's just a product of our MeMeMeRushRushRush mindset.

texting while driving should be banned, period. When talking on a phone, at least your eyes are on a road.. but texting while driving has Darvin award written all over it...

I would say the percentage of "what the **** are they thinking?" moments I have while driving that turn out to involve a female on a cellphone (I see as they completely obliviously drive by) must be about 60%. I'm getting really tired of it.

Occasionally I will make a quick call on the cell while driving - if I'm on a quiet road I might make a quick call home to say something like "I'm on my way, bye". I don't think I've ever used one in town.

I see this kind of sheeet everyday. Someone will be on the phone/texting/doing make-up and they will cut you up. Then when you horn at them they will give you the finger or start cussing as if it's your fault!
