The U.S. government Tuesday banned hand-held "texting'' by drivers of large commercial trucks and buses to avoid the danger of distracted driving.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said in a statement the prohibition takes effect immediately. It follows a similar ban in December for drivers of federal government vehicles.
"We want the drivers of big rigs and buses and those who share the roads with them to be safe,'' LaHood said. "This is an important safety step and we will be taking more to eliminate the threat of distracted driving.''

Let’s face it, we live in an online world. It seems like every other purchase we make nowadays takes place with a virtual vendor: Movies, music, computers, electronics, books, clothes, etc. The list goes on and on.
Obviously, the two main reasons people buy online are convenience and price. But there are many hidden disadvantages for buying online.
