Pardon me, sir, but I beg to differ..... How can you call a collision that results from texting while driving an ACCIDENT?????????
I have a problem with calling every collision an ACCIDENT. An ACCIDENT is something that happens when you are doing things the way you should, minding your own business, and being reasonably cautious. Texting while driving in particular is ASKING for TROUBLE. Just like weaving in and out of traffic at an unreasonable speed.
My (not so humble) opinion is that if a person is driving aggressively, inattentively, incompetently, or just plain stupidly, the resulting collision is NOT an ACCIDENT. It is the result of bad behavior, and is therefore in no way accidental. Calling something like that an accident is basically absolving the driver of the bad driving that caused the collision.
Sorry if this seems like a rant, because it is. It really torques my jaws to hear people euphemize what should become a criminal offense and should come with heavy fines and even jail time.
Not really directed to you personally, fixerupper, but I needed to add my 2 cents someplace.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
