Head-On Collission Stops Traffic on Highway 118 - Moorpark, CA Patch

I'm so sick of this happening, and especially in my face right in front of our house. I am on a rant, and this is just too much. We all know that any distraction from driving is dangerous, and talking on a phone and putting yourself out in space (WHETHER YOU KNOW IT PUTS YOU OUT IN SPACE OR NOT), is often deadly. In this case, a teen girl has a rearranged face, and too many broken bones to count. We watched as the fire dept had to winch the transmission and front left wheel of the Accord off the driver's seat! And in addition to the girl, her boyfriend and an 8-week-old puppy got all banged up. I have little mercy for the people, but I called the Ventura County Animal Services this morning, and pledged some funds for the puppy, which is at the county dog pound vet hospital.

WHY WHY WHY does anyone need to talk on a phone while driving??? Hwy 118 has shoulders most all the way along through here to pull over onto, if there is a life & death reason to need to call somebody. The speed limit is 55, and most everyone speeds at 70-75, meaning the phone chat = a 140-150 mile-per-hour crash in this case.

sad, i don't mind talking on phone, texting is when i almost crash
 
Talking on your cell phone while driving is illegal in CA. Hopefully somebody files some charges.
 
i didn't know that. i think it's funny you can smoke pot in cali but talking on a phone is illegal.
 
Texting will probably erase all the gains we've made in the fight against drunk driving over the last 30 years.
 
It's perfectly legal to text an order to the local marijuana dispensery while driving to pick up some hashish
