Comments by the readers : "Sad that drivers are unable to pay attention to know when to brake. How have we ever managed up until this time? "Now they just need to add a mandatory feature to new cars that jams cell phone signals when the car is in motion. Maybe they could allow an emergency button that calls 911. A woman in my county ran over a police officer and killed him while playing on her phone and was sentenced to 2 years in county prison with work release. If she would have been drunk she would probably still be sitting in state prison. Why the double standard?"
