This past Tuesday the life of a dear friend ended because of the inconsiderate action of another human being .. She was know by many in here and loved .. Two days after Memorial Day Donna on the way home from work on her Harley was hit head on by a woman who was texting while driving, she swerved into Donna's lane and Donna had no time to react. This woman had several other accounts of accidents due to texting and inattentive driving where others were hurt. Because of this woman's carelessness, she destroyed the life of Donna, but also her 11 year old daughter, family and friends, not to mention her own. She will be facing manslaughter charges along with several other charges due to this.
They need to pass stricter laws on this. Statistics state that a person texting while driving is like driving the entire length of a football field blinfolded. The rate of teen deaths has doubled in the past 5 years due to texting while behind the wheel of a moving vehicle. It isn't only teens guilty of this, the woman who hit Donna was in her early forties and the man who T-boned me while texting was in his 70's. This senseless disregard to the safety of others has got to stop. The judges need to inforce stricter penalties on those who disregard the laws against texting while driving.
