I found this game and thought that other people here might like to try it. It is a simulation of texting while driving. It is really interesting to see what your reaction time is at the end of the game. Let me know what you think!

I thought I was good at multitasking, but this was hard!

I think texting and is CRAZY!!!(but I think I just made some enemies...) Well that game was soooooo hard! I think it is great. But you don't have to change lanes quite that much. But you should be watching the road that much...I know a couple that was hit head on by a guy who was texting. They are still disabled.

I know! When I see someone next to us that is texting I always get a little nervous. But yeah on the game you have to change lanes a LOT more than you would in real life!
There was a show on Extreme Makeover Home Edition recently about a girl that was killed while texting just because she drove off the road. It was a day before her graduation....

That's scary...I'm in the process of writing a persuasive essay about texting while driving for my writing class.
