No, and I don't text while behind the wheel either being a motorcycle rider and seeing it happen all around me I have become and even safer driver when in the cage.

There are no fender benders when you are the one on two wheels.

Please be careful out there

Not that much but I do look at my watch when I'm stuck in traffic.

EDIT: Good post John, I don't send text messages nor do I talk on the phone when I'm driving! I'm always safe!

I have caught myself looking at my watch in the side mirror, and not paying attention to the road. It is just a matter of time!!!

Happened to me in rush hour bumper-to-bumper traffic on the way to work today.

I lived most of my life on motorcycles. Survived in Philadelphia and New York City having only motorcycles. I never owned a car until I moved out to Los Angeles about 10 years ago.
