Pedestrian texting is becoming more of an issue, too.

More than once I've literally had to rely on the BAS to keep from killing people. Recently it was a couple, at night, both texting, wearing dark clothing, stepped from behind a car into the crosswalk right in front of me. I stopped less than a foot from hitting them. They just kind of glanced at me and kept walking and texting. Doubtless they had no idea how close they came to serious injury or death.

I guess it's a good thing I was DRIVING and not TEXTING!!!
