Carfax..cell phones/accidents

[Ed Kellock]

I guess I'm getting more liberal in my old age because though I
believe cell phone usage while driving is just the latest, most
obvious symptom of a larger social problem, I am 100% in favor of
banning the fu$$ers.

Is it Ford or GM who's showing off a car that reads your text messages
to you while you're driving?

FFS.
