I sold it because I wanted a more slender weapon. I plan to buy another G27 later this year.

That's the reason most people get rid of glocks for carry. Ever considered a 1911? They are quite thin.

x2, but its ok. i can text pretty much without looking at my phone.

I drove behind and beside a guy on a crotch rocket for atleast 10 miles at 11 pm at night on a dark ass highway watching him text so everyone does it at one time or another.

Okay... that's just some skill!

I would venture a guess that rubbernecking causes more accidents than texting, so lets get together and pass a bill that outlaws rubbernecking.


Stevo

I'd vote for the fucking death penalty for rubbernecking

Riddle me this ....

Those here that text and drive, why is is so important to reply to that text while driving??

You mean to tell me that you replying to that text is SO IMPORTANT, that it could not wait 5mins or so for you to stop or wait till you got where you needed to be?

It just amazes me that people are more worried about there damm phone than driving these days, and then people bitch about a law that is suppose to save lives

I make my living with my phone... I'm usually "emailing", not texting.

But I don't have to look at my phone to text/email. (thank you swype!)

How many people on here are on their phones when driving through a school zone. Have any of yous guy seen others on their phone while going though a school zone. This law will do nothing. Arlington passed a law about leaving your car running while noone is in it. I've seen people leave their car running while they run inside a store. Some laws are stupid, pointless means of getting revenue.

I've seen dumb people drive slow or swerve while texting..

BUT this is gonna be dumb, what if you are:


using your phone as an mp3 player and switching songs ?
checking email?
navigation?
internet?
in the motion of dialing someone / answering a phone call?

"excuse me sir, i pulled you over because i saw you lift up your phone"

- "but officer i'm using my navigation because im not familiar with this area"

"Nope... sorry, you are wrong, i am right, shut up, here is your ticket."

I agree with the talking on the phone going through the school zone law. You might not be paying attention while talking on the phone and accidently hit a kid.
(i have no kids by the way... for you people who think this law isnt okay because i'm thinking like a parent)
