Lawmakers in New Jersey are considering a bill to outlaw text messaging while driving. Yes. A survey found a hefty percentage of drivers actually do this, so now people need to be told they can no longer type with their thumbs while navigating a honking big mass of iron at 40 miles an hour.
Doesn’t it seem like if Darwin was right, these guys should have lost their opposable thumbs long ago? What’s going wrong with evolution?
I suppose now we’ll need laws saying drivers can’t lie on top of their cars tanning themselves while steering with their feet through the sunroof? What is more, we will need to create a new government agency, The Department of Finding Out What Imbeciles are Doing and Quickly Banning It. Jon Hurdle reports:
