I posted this vid on my facebook and got alot of great comments. It was good because i know alot of the ppl that saw it don't see the stuff we do. It was a very great eye opener for many. I would have liked to show it the kids at the local school.

I agree this is a good vid, I am a truckdriver and myself have been just a guilty usen the qualcom in the truck while driveing, wich is no diff then a phone just more buttons, but typen on a key board is just as bad. I also see a lot of motorists doing the same thing mostly in the younger generation useing there phones to text seems to be an eppedemic. What is even more scarry, is I have even seen police, ems, and fire service members doing the same thing in there emergency vehicles. You will be surprised what you see when higher then others on the road. I also feel that as much flack as has been put on truckers, that the rule of no texting while driveing is a good idea. I feel that the rule should go down the line to all persons opperating a motorized vehicle, should be against the law and stiffer rules and fines in place if cought texting. I myself beleive in the headset use when talking on a cell phone even, keeps both hands free. I have a good head set with voice comand so all I need to do is say the name and it auto calls the no. I canot say even a head set is perfect but dose help in keeping your eyes on the road. I am saveing this vid for our drill night as well as a copy for our training officer at the company I work for. They did a good job on this and feel that all ages should watch this maybee it will get the point out to our youth and to us adults, it did me and spooked my doughter she happened to walk behind me durring the worst part, she is 7 and yes her friends text and have phones I still wont let her have one yet.

NOT FOR KIDS? I think everyone who drives and texts NEEDS to see this. Especially "kids" (future drivers, NEW drivers, and any driver who believes it can't happen to them, or won't) Just because the Europeans made this, does that mean the clip depicts false results? Are crashes of this nature different from country to country?
