Nothing to do with Immigration but a timely reminder of why not to text while driving. The video was made in UK and is fast becoming a hit here and around the world. It's quite graphic so be warned. That's how they make 'em in UK. With a harder edge then here in the USA

Wow. Powerful message, Brittie. I sent the link to my kids and asked them to share with their friends. They passed a law in July that made texting while driving against the law in Virginia, but you know how that goes.

Thanks! Smile

The Texters car actually Drove Over the top of the car in front Completely!! No wreck!!! at 55 - 65 mph. LUCKY!!! Needless to say NO Mobile phone use PERIOD while driving!!! Me converted. The call can wait!!! 15 Years ago, message on the answering machine at home!! FREEDOM!!!

Blue tooth only while on cell in the car - NO texting ever while driving. (Plus, I'm not coordinated enough to text and drive - lol). Smile

Maybe the U.S. can show alleged intensive interrogation techniques to anyone who drives while talking and texting on the phone. What do you think?

Note that studies have shown that handfree is no improvement over a cell in the hand.

Handsfree No Improvement

Not that I have to explain, but I did not hire them (I didn't work here when they were hired). They were hired using fake documents and at the time, E-Verify wasn't being pushed. Only found out some time later. And, bottom line is they are no longer with our company. However, they were excellent employees.

As far as laws and rules, I've never even gotten a speeding ticket. Can you say the same is true for yourself??? Big Grin
