Don’t Text and Drive

If you live in Illinois, New Hampshire, or Oregon, you are no longer able to

send or read text messages while driving as of January 1, 2010.

Illinois, New Hampshire, and Oregon are just three more states that have recognized just how dangerous it can be to text and drive. Unfortunately, its a situation that continues to be a problem that is making our roads increasingly dangerous.

A recent study showed that 20% of drivers still send text messages while driving, despite the obvious danger that it imposes.  Moreover, 44% of all drivers read text messages while driving.

This is despite a University of Utah study that showed that drivers who text and drive at the same time are six times more likely to be involved in an accident.

At 84444.com, we love text messages.  84444.com is, however, adamantly opposed to any form of text messaging while driving and we hope that all of our customers refrain from doing so.
