EVERYONE old enough to drive !!!

Tell that to the suburban Mom in the red Hummer looking at her phone (with two children in her back seat) who hit me at full speed while I was stopped at a stop light. No brakes!

Good thing no injuries.

Red Hummer looking at phone rears ends silver Mercedes stopped waiting at a stop light. One month ago. My trusty 04 ML can surely take a hit! Wouldn't be as easy to get over had it been the 991.

I agree, should not be limited to kids, should be everyone. And not only texting, but having a phone glued to their ears. Wife got rear ended by a guy with a phone in his ear. It really is terrible and I see it all the time - people texting and driving or on the phone and driving. When are people going to learn - only after they have killed somebody? It is epidemic and just terrible. And even with laws on the books, people still do it. Just infuriates me -- how people can be so self absorbed -- uncaring and oblivious.

Or the 50 year old guy in the M-B that was texting and smacked into a Civic which in turn hit me and caused 25K in damage to my previous R8.

They should have charged her with child negligence.

Good video, thanks OP! I sent it on to the kids.

Texting & driving around here has gotten so bad that I'm buying an Audi to drive most days instead of the 911... and I'm going to lease it, so I don't have to worry about diminished value when some ******** hits me.

John's 991 is on a distinguished road
I shared it with my two kids who are old enough to drive. It made the point, and I sure hope the don't text and drive.
