I’m not a bad man or thief, but I think about the potential ease of rolling somebody everytime I see a stranger walking by glued to their phone or lost in the mp3 player. I also turn it around and think about how easy somebody could steal from me or even assault me if I’m distracted while talking on the phone.

I think a much more important factor is how cell phones affect the flow of traffic. I suspect that part of the decline in fuel efficiency and increase in congestion (until the economy tanked this year) we had the past several years is due to cell phone use. Cell phone drivers are slower to react to changes at signals, follow other cars less closely, and probably accelerate slower. This decreases fuel economy, decreases the capacity of roads, and causes more stop-and-go driving. Similar to people erroneously reacting to high gas prices by accelerating more slowly and driving slower at non-freeway speeds, below 55mph.

Trust me on this one: do not text on a cell phone while running on a narrow, shoulderless, two lane main road.
