It's true. If you see a girl in a car coming the other way there is a 72.5% chance she is texting. Your only real chance is to swerve violently off the road.

If you for some reason don't swerve, perhaps the girl is driving a van or other vehicle you do not expect a female to drive you still have a small chance of survival, although these drop rapidly if you fit into a cliché so it is best to avoid the roads entirely if you are en route to your wedding, doing something for charity or in any way could be described as having your whole life ahead of you.

Can't say I'm a fan of this sort of emotive film. It has no effect on the demographic that cause the crash. Nobody usually has anything negative to say as the subject is so taboo that they just respect everyone involved too much.

I'm guessing you don't have kids T-Bag?

I'm not sure this is aimed entirely at young women texting.

I guess if it makes just one person stop and think then it's worthwhile.
