I am ALWAYS singing in the car! Being a trained singer, I can really get into it, making me look VERY silly.
[QUOTE=LazyScot;538990]A few years back, something similar happened on the M3 motorway (sort of like an interstate) near me -- it's a road I use a fair bit. Details are on the
BBC website. From what I remember (if not this case then another) the car the victim was in was reduced in size so much that the lorry driver didn't realise it was there (i.e. he'd never seen it).
I completely fail to understand any opposition to banning texting and phonecalls while driving...[/QUOTE]
My 18 year old niece rear-ended a car stopped at a traffic light and totalled her brand new BMW convertible (did I tell you my older brother makes WAY too much money). After much evasion, it came out that she was texting her friend to tell her that she was running late.

No worries, though. My brother went right out and bought her a Cadillac.
