you are correct, but if i had to put them in order of how much they distract you, i would put texting at number one

I tyhought it was harmless myself, at first... until i looked up from a text once and saw a mailbox and ditch dead ahead of me.

I swore off texting while driving and will not do it. it scared the crap out of me at how MUCH i was distracted

yeah, I have had a similar experience. I can text quickly at a stop light, or maybe short responses on long empty stretches of interstate, but around town? nearly impossible for me.

I turned texting OFF on my flip phone. No chance of texting, and better quality of life. Occasionally a Craigslister will be shocked that I don't text EVER, sending or receiving. My boss' boss likes text alerts, so for him I use an email to text converter.
