text: Stephen Corby has an article, "Why you really shouldn't use your mobile phone while driving" here, he compares the usage of a mobile device while driving to driving with your eyes closed or reading a book while driving. "Frankly, using mobile phone while driving, is such a stupid cause of death that, before the advent of the cell phone it would only have been comparable with reading a book while driving or closed eyes while driving." Corby makes a pretty great comparison here. The amount of time you take to pick up your device and see who is calling you or texting you is enough time to get off the lane. While driving you should have full attention on the road. Although it is tempting to use your device try considering a longer life for yourself or someone else on the road.
