I'm taking a huge chance here by hyping up a video of a rather graphic and dramatic, but realistic, nature produced by Peter Watkins-Hughes, a talented documentary artist and lecturer in Wales: a Public Service Announcement on Texting while Driving which really drives (no pun intended) a significant message home. 

It should come as an embarrassment to many drivers this video, a detailed, heart-crushing f*cking demonstration intended to wake them up from their destructive self-importance, already.  Texting has been ruled an impediment to driving, worse than alcohol and drug consumption, which easily and quickly erases at least 35% of a driver's focus.  And yet, I witness douchenuggets behind a wheel, yapping on a cellphone or manipulating a pocket-sized device on a daily basis. 

Oh, yeah.  Warning: this fictitious but powerful material may not be suitable for sensitive viewers.  Like me.  I almost cried over the immense honesty and brilliance packaged into just four minutes and fifteen seconds of my time.
