Still See People Texting and Driving

I still continue to pass people on the highway on a regular basis that are texting and driving.  Just yesterday, I saw a cell phone promienently balanced on the top of the steering wheel in full view, the driver was reading his text message while driving down the highway.  Texting and driving is dangerous!!
