As an excuse, just say you're looking up the directions via the GPS on your iPhone.

But yeah,...it drives me nuts when people are so engrossed in their texting...they fail to see traffic waiting for them. (admittedly, I've glanced at a text message or two while driving. I've even texted when I was at a traffic light waiting. But I've never caused traffic to wait for me to be done).

I don't think people are scared enough to stop. Drives me nuts how slow they drive while on the phone.

experience texters don't need to look at phone when texting. but yeah they should have banned this before they even banned talking on cellphones while driving!

Where do you see this behavior?, freeways, big box areas, why??, its mainly flat, slow, and their stupid. My commute 23 miles of fast, curvy mountain fun. I'm too darn busy to text. Guess I'm lucky
