Fess Up - Are you guilty of TWD? (Texting While Driving)
Let's face it, in our business of real estate we are constantly on the go, constantly on our phones, on our computers and iPads emailing, and oh yeah, constantly texting.
In fact texting seems to be taking over as a top way of communicating. People are buying smart phones with bigger keypads so they can text easier.
I once asked my 12 year old daughter why I never see her talking on her cell phone? Her answer, "Phones are for texting".
It really is a time saver you have to admit. With texting you get right to the point. And you can be just about anywhere, doing anything and send a quick text to someone for a quick answer to something. Including while you are in your car.
So, I have to ask my fellow comrades, Are you guilty of TWD? Even a little bit? Do you pull over? Do you text while at a stop light?
Fess up. Even if it's to yourself. The firing squad will not come looking for you.
We don't have to be reminded of how dangerous texting and driving can be, but I had a close call the other evening, so I'm DONE. Especially after looking at these photos.

There's my confession..
