Texting while driving
From the Daily Telegraph
"Just five seconds can kill when drivers use handsets while driving"
My idea to to help cut the numbers texting while driving:
The vehicle of anyone caught texting is immediatly impounded.
It's difficult to text and drive when your cars locked up

A little bit harsh, tell the victims in these court reports.

I drove into town on Southern Cross Drive today and a car in front was weaving side to side mostly in it's middle lane.
I drew alongside and a youngest woman was texting.
I tooted, she looked over and waved her arm at me as if shooing a fly.
That is why we need more unmarked Police cars on the road and $1000 fines.
