lol well i guess you might want to start walking or taking a bus. because everyone text and drives. its something that will never stop. and for me its a safer way (for me) its not safe to text and drive period.. but if i can keep my eyes on the road and not have to constantly look down at my phone to see what key i hit.. thats good for me. i dont always text and drive. i hardly ever do it. but when i do i can keep my eyes on the road because i can swipe.
Sorry, but I just can't seem to "lol" about this.
It's not so much your life I care about (though I certainly don't want any harm to come to you and hope you live a long and prosperous life), it's the life of the completely innocent 5 year old kid you kill while texting and driving, as you suddenly realize that you're not really endowed with special powers of concentration or superhuman texting/driving capabilities. The problem isn't just taking your eyes off the road, it's where your mind is at.
Swype or SwiftKey Flow or the new 4.2 keyboard makes no difference. If you text and drive, you're either a foolish and selfish person, or (hopefully) just completely uninformed. It's possible nothing will ever happen to you, but with your behavior the chances have increased substantially that something bad will happen. When it does, don't bother calling me for bail money (best case scenario) or your funeral expenses (hard to do when you're 6 feet under)!
Better yet, since I get the feeling you're actually a pretty good person, just don't text and drive. End of sermon.
