texting while driving

I sort of thought this whole texting while driving thing was some kind of cracky urban legend, like razor blades in apples at Halloween. Until some pretty boy in a BMW station wagon almost plowed into me this afternoon getting on the highway. He was merrily texting away on his iPhone.
