OK, who does/has done it? Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: E-A-G-L-E! on May 08, 2007, 03:08:10 PM Not me. :D
Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: Jules on May 08, 2007, 03:15:00 PM I have a hard enough time trying to type a text (I found its all in the rythym ;D), never alone, do it while driving!!! ::) ::)
That's just asking "to die in a car accident"!!! Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: Uisce Beatha on May 08, 2007, 03:19:48 PM Never have. Never will.
I'm a two handed texter and that would mean I'd have to let go of the wheel AND my beer. Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: Torpedo on May 08, 2007, 03:31:01 PM Not me either.

For what it's worth, I don't use a cell phone while I'm driving either.

Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: MFAWG on May 08, 2007, 04:59:52 PM I have a new phone and a new plan as of last month. (Qwest. I actually told the girl to put in the comments that I was renewing with them mostly because they told BushCo to go get a *goshdarn* subpoena if they wanted to look at call records, but that's a different thread), and I have text that I've literally never used.
I have a friend that texts me, but I just call her back. It takes me 5 minutes to put 3 words in... ::) Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: E-A-G-L-E! on May 08, 2007, 05:14:26 PM I have a friend that texts me, but I just call her back.

Actually, I don't abbreviate much either (except for lol, rofl, ttyl, brb, and a few others). I just added that because texting has made abbreviations even more common place.

Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: stroh on May 08, 2007, 06:20:55 PM Ha! You all know how I type on a full size key board. Typing on a # keypad while driving?
Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: Clive on May 08, 2007, 06:25:47 PM Never. I've tried to read an email while driving, but I won't type anything while the vehicle is moving.

Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: Clive on May 09, 2007, 04:10:28 AM Okay, please explain the abbreviations, rofl, ttyl and brb to me, I have no idea what they mean!!!! ROFL = rolling on the floor laughingTTYL = talk to you later brb = be right back wdgnwoyc = what, does Google not work on your computer? Title: Re: Text messaging while driving Post by: Aske on May 09, 2007, 06:47:32 AM nope, closest is occasionally a phone call to an automated line where a few #'s are required. I can do that without looking at the phone though

My wife is totally into text messaging, so I really have no choice. If any of you can find a better medium for on-demand dirty talk, I'm all ears.
