Finally, there is a solution to the problem of texting while driving. We call it "distracted driving". Any way you call it, it means trouble. Last year over 8000 people were killed trying to use a hand held device while driving at the same time. Texting while driving has been outlawed in 39 states so far this year. More are expected to follow.
The solution to the problem is named "KyLee". Using "KyLee", you can drive your car and pay full attention to the road and to your driving. You never have to worry about getting into an accident or getting arrested for distracted driving.
For more information, please go to http://www.quikcomm.com and please check this one out. The cost for "KyLee is minimal. However, KyLee can save your life. It can prevent you from getting socked with a stiff fine, a loss of your driver's license, or possibly even jail time. You owe it to yourself and your family to read this article and please contact us. If you don't heed this wake up call, sooner or later, your habit of texting while driving is going to creep up on you and it will be too late for you to do anything about it except face the judge in the courtroom.
Picture this scenario and you may never pick up a hand held device ever again. As a matter of fact, you may never be able to live with yourself at all. For what is about to happen to you is a scenario crafted by the devil himself.
Here is the picture. You are driving along a neighborhood street. It is a beautiful midsummer day. You haven't a care in the world. You are just cruising along on your way home after having had a great day at the office. You are blissfully unaware that an unfortunate event is about to strike. Your life is about to change in the next couple of minutes and you will never be the same again.
As you drive along, your hand held mobile device rings. It is your business partner John. You dig into your pocket to fetch the device. Your attention begins to drift, all the while as you are trying to drive your car. John has an important message for you. He needs your input to answer some questions. You try to concentrate on watching the road and driving your car, while at the same time trying to compose a text reply to John over your hand held device.
Like hundreds of thousands of your fellow motorists, you have chosen to violate your state's anti-texting law. You begin to text out a reply to John. It isn't easy.
It is agonizing. The type keyboard is too small. You can barely see the letters. You cannot shift to numbers or capital letters.
All of this madness breaks loose upon you while at the same time, you are trying to drive your car. Is this what they call "distracted driving?"
Suddenly out of nowhere, a red ball bounces into the road right in front of your car. A child comes running immediately afterwards. You cannot drop your hand held device and slam on the brakes fast enough. Your reflexes just cannot do it. You feel this terrible thud against your car. You scream out, "Oh my God, I've hit her !" You are paralyed with fear. You hear a scream, "MOMMY !".
You bolt out of your car to see a child's lifeless body in front of you. You fall completely apart. This happened all because of your stubborn insistence that you have the right to do texting over a hand held device.
Seconds later you hear the wail of sirens and see endless flashing red and blue lights. An emergency medical team hovers over the child's lifeless body while the police orders you back out of your car.
It didn't take the police long to find what they were looking for. This police officer knew how to handle evidence. She remarked,"It looks like you were trying to text out a message while you were driving. This is your cell phone, is it not?" She turned to her partner,
"Tony. Read him his rights."
Then, to you, she said, "Sir, we are placing you under arrest. We are taking you to headquarters where you will be booked and charged with involuntary manslaughter. I must inform you this is a felony offense. You will have the opportunity to contact your
attorney when we arrive at headquarters. We are impounding your car and all its contents. I suggest you remember your rights. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. Do you understand what I have just said?". She commanded her
partner, "Tony, put the cuffs on him and get him into the back of the squad car." She continued, "We are charging you with involuntary manslaughter in the death of the girl who is the victim in this case".
The police officers were pushing you violently into the back of their squad car. The mother of the child came bolting out of the house and was screaming, "YOU KILLED MY BABY!" The cops were really shaking you violently and all you could hear was a woman screaming, "JEFF! JEFF! WAKE UP!" PLEASE!"
You suddenly woke up in a daze. This was Lee Ann, your wife that was screaming. You came to your senses and realized you were not in your car. You were not out on the street. There was no dead little girl in front of your car. There were no cops placing you under arrest. You did not kill any child. There was no screaming mother saying "YOU KILLED MY BABY!" There was only Lee Ann, your wife, that was screaming at you to wake up.
It was only a nightmare. It was perhaps the worst nightmare you will ever have. Thank The Lord you didn't kill an innocent little girl. The only screaming was from Lee Ann, your wife, pleading with you to wake up.
But what is this in your hand?. It is your hand held device. Were you trying to send a text message in your sleep?
You had better heed this wake up call. It was your good fortune that this was only a horrible dream. The next time might be the real thing.
Look at this video. Better still, have your wife and kids look at it with you.
Distracted driving is the number one killer on our highways, roadways, and streets today.
There are any number of ways that you can take action against distracted driving. You can join the Citizens Against Distracted Driving (CADD). You can access articles published by the US Department Of Transportation (USDOT) and read what they have to say. You can contact the Driver Education Foundation of America (DEFA) and join many of their programs.
You must stop and take action. Not tomorrow, not the next day, not when you feel you'll get around to it. But NOW!! If you don't, you may find the judge hearing your arrest case, sentencing you to a jail term or many hours of community service to educate others about distracted driving.
You could prevent this from ever happening to you by enrolling in FDI Voice and letting "KyLee" handle your messages....all while your hands are on the steering wheel and your attention is on the road. For further information on FDI Voice, please go to http://quikcomm.com.
Your family will love you for it, and who knows....there might even be an innocent little girl with a red ball that will owe her life to your wise decision to put your hand held device away and talk hands free.
