I heard things about how texting and driving was not a good idea, but I thought I'm a good driver, nothing could happen to me...It became obvious to me almost immediately that texting and driving is a bad idea.
On April 20 2010, Steve Lanys-Morris was responding to a text message while behind the wheel. After only typing "on my w," to let his friend know he was on the way to pick him up, Steve crashed into a vehicle in oncoming traffic. The crash resulted in a number of serious life-altering injuries to the occupants of the other vehicles involved, including himself.
Today, Steve speaks about his story and the dangers of texting and driving.
