Accident is such a dirty word as it related to vehicular collisions.They are not accidents. The drivers were purposely talking on the phone, texting, putting on makeup, fooling with the radio, looking at kids in the back seat... the list goes on.They were purposely choosing to not pay attention to driving, the resulting collision? No accident...
@MTechnique: Exactly. This morning a white minivan pulled out slowly on to Northpark from Bassingham in front of quite a bit of traffic. She drove for quite a while in both lanes, rather than just the inside (right) lane. Of course, she jerked the car over into the right lane after everyone was slamming on their brakes. Then, she was going maybe 30 mph on Northpark. Through all of that she never put her phone down and never looked up. We jump all over kids for doing this but I see more adults doing it!!! Maddening!!
