texting

MOSCOW, Idaho (AP) — A school bus roaming the streets of Moscow this week has been a cover for police officers looking to catch traffic violations.

Another state is considering legislation that will allow police to use a device to determine whether or not a person has been texting while driving. Do you think this technology should come to Idaho?

Everyone agrees that texting and driving is NEVER a good idea. Yet it happens all the time in Twin Falls. A few days ago I saw a girl texting on Poleline while driving 60MPH. Crazy!

Let’s face it, we’re living in an increasingly digital world. Even toddlers are walking around with Instagram on their smart phones. In theory this should make us the communication generation. But we’re not. Check out these great texting fails for proof!

When it comes to typing on the computer though, I (like everybody else) do rely heavily on spell check. And that may be a problem in reality.
