Picture this: You are traveling down the road, obeying the posted speed limit and carefully maneuvering through traffic. You arrive at a red light and come to a stop. While you are waiting for the light to turn to green, BAM! You have been hit from behind. You are terrified. You immediately turn to check on your child in the backseat, who has begun wailing in fear. Your purse, groceries and shopping bag have been strewn about. You get out of the car and observe the damage. The rear end of your car is completely smashed and demolished. The other driver ensures everyone is alright. You notice a cellular phone in his hand. How did he have time to retrieve a phone in such short time? Then it occurs to you: he was probably talking or text messaging and not paying attention to the road.
