Cell phones = drunk driving

"Danger, Will Robinson! Danger!" Results of a recent study show that using a cell phone while driving is as dangerous and sometimes even more dangerous than driving under the influence.

In the study, many cell phone users crashed into the pace car ahead of them, but none of the DUI ones did. Yikes!

A commenter at a CNET blog posting on this report says that the problem is "self-phones" -- phones used by people who are so self-centered that they forget even common courtesy to others while using the cell phones.
