I notice driving has gotten a whole lot more dangerous lately as nearly every car you glance into, the driver is texting. This is not just my imagination.

In the past two months, I’ve had more than a dozen near-crashes all due to people visibly texting — people drifting into my lane, running red lights, pulling out while still texting, and so many more.

Anyone caught texting while in motion should receive a fine of 10% of their yearly income for first offense. Second offense should be having car impounded and license revoked for a year. Third offense should be all driving privileges revoked forever.
