And yes some bump into a pole or something but again that is on them. We can't control every moment of people's lives.

Every day I see people weaving down the Parkway with their eyes down on their phones.

You'll get tons of information about mobile phone related safety issues.

Its a good thing to do. To get informed on the issues.

I think with cell phones and walking, it depends a lot on where you are. I dont think people should make it a practice of walking on city streets, while talking on cell phones.

Cell phones and driving, thats definitely dangerous.
