Chicago DUI attorney comments on texting as the de facto cause of bad driving

This Chicago DUI attorney has posted here, here, and here about texting while driving.

She admits to being surprised that others, across the country are just as interested by this phenomenon as she is.

From Facebook.com:

OMG Y'ALL! That was certainly divine intervention! A car full of teens swerved into my lane and almost hit me head on! Bet you they were textn. I'm parked now.

It always surprises me the types of status updates that generate the most responses.  I’m glad my friend was okay.  I wish we knew if the kid who was driving was actually texting.  Luckily, there wasn’t an accident.
