[QUOTE="Sammie, post: 189073, member: 8657"] Maybe I'm too much of a backer of Big Brother sometimes. My husband and I thoroughly disagree over this argument, even though he's been driving for this company for 32 years and has seen more than his fair share of injuries and fatalities out on the road. His feelings: no one should tell anyone else to wear a helmet, or a seat belt, or not to talk on a cell phone while driving. If they want to be morons, let them be morons. Leave them alone. After a trauma nurse friend of mine explained the condition of a patient who came in, hadn't been wearing a helmet while riding a motorcycle and his head was split open like a watermelon... I have no problem with Big Brother hammering you if you don't wear a helmet, or a seat belt and I hope there's future legislation concerning cell phones. If this is what it takes to prevent one more injury or one more death, I'm all for it.... Here are some stats on cell phones while driving: [URL="http://www.livescience.com/technology/050201_cell_danger.html"]LiveScience.com - Drivers on Cell Phones Kill Thousands, Snarl Traffic[/URL] [/QUOTE]
