Haiku: Driving on the Phone

Must you sideswipe me?
Call your friend when you get home
You'd be safer drunk


Study: cell-phone driver and the drunk driver (164k PDF)
"When controlling for driving difficulty and time on task, cell-phone drivers exhibited greater impairment than intoxicated drivers."

Study: Does Cell Phone Conversation Impair Driving Performance?
"Study participants that engaged in cell phone conversations missed twice as many simulated traffic signals as when they were not talking on the cell phone"

Kevin, sorry it took me so long to come around and finally comment. I visited a few days ago to enjoy your haiku. I wonder what it's going to take before the country mandates hands free phone calls or bans cell phone usage while driving altogether.
