It has to do with our treating driving as a casual affair, as if you were sitting on the couch flipping channels instead of piloting a two ton piece of metal.

When states even have to consider passing laws making texting-driving illegal there is a problem with how we are conditioned about driving.

About 40,000 people are killed every year in auto accidents! Where are the protests, where are the people up in arms that around 200,000 people have died since the Iraqi invasion.

It is a silent killer — drinking and driving is one symptom and if the wall works great. Is there a celebrity alive who hasn’t been busted? Yet they aren’t deterred and they can afford drivers.
