Texting while driving is widely acknowledged as a bad thing to do – but what about texting while walking? Don’t think you’re getting away with your dangerous actions, which could lead to a collision with another pedestrian, or even a vehicle in the road. Politicians in a US state are now considering a ban. Most of us will be familiar with almost colliding with someone on the pavement due to a mobile phone. Maybe it was the other person weaving in and out, thinking their peripheral vision was a lot, lot better than it actually was. Or maybe it was you. Just quickly sending a text to reply, keeping her updated of your progress when suddenly… Oh. Oops.
