texting and steps=trip and fall

[mike honcho]

Texting: It's so dangerous that the federal government wants to ban it while driving. But more than just dangerous, it's also incredibly embarrassing when you have an accident because you're doing it — or at least it was for the woman in the video above.
A Canadian news station was doing a live report in Ontario when a woman, paying too much attention to her phone and not enough attention to where she was going, took a tumble down a small flight of steps. The reporter doesn't seem to notice the girl falling, though plenty of passersby do.

serves her right. the government should ban texting while driving. there are enough idiots on the road without compounding it with texting.
