Are You a Textaholic?

Are you addicted to texting? I didn’t realize this was an actual problem until a few nights ago when I was flipping channels and stopped on MTV’s documentary show, “True Life”. This episode was about two young women who were textaholics and all jokes aside – they really were! These ladies were addicted to their phones and could send almost 15,000 texts in one month.

You can watch the full episode online, but could you imagine getting carpal tunnel at the age 18 just from texting? Craziness. I found the episode to be insightful yet scary at the same time. One of the women in the show didn’t even realize how dangerous it was to text and drive with her baby in the back seat. I thought we all knew how easy it is to have a car accident because of texting behind the wheel, guess not.

I’ve said it before and I’m sure I’ll say it again – texting and driving is just like drinking and driving. It’s dangerous, stupid and will get you hurt in a car accident sooner or later. Put down you’re phones people!

Someone who is texting and driving is being negligent. Contact my law firm today if you need a personal injury attorney in DFW to take your texting and driving accident case.
