Our self-centered world . . .

On the news, they were showing a driving simulation test with the express purpose of revealing the extent cell phone use effects your driving ability. The news woman trying out the test was amazed to find out that every time she answered a cell phone, the car swerved noticeably. Granted, most times a swerve is easily corrected but what about another car along side that is forced to move because of your sudden change of direction?

Made me think about how many people, here in California, still regularly use their cell phones even though it is against the law. No matter what anyone says, cell phones are a distraction and your driving is not one hundred percent. It is the ego centered world of today where everyone thinks they are an exception.
