We were stopped at the light when we became a vehicle accident number.

The man at fault copped to it immediately. It seems, he tells us all, he was "distracted." Now we (and I use that in the large editorial sense) are taking meds and in treatment.

For all you jackasses yakking on your cell phones and reaching for your fancy bottled water here's a bulletin: there are other cars on the road, with people in them with lives that your short-sighted self-centered ways impact.

Next time? May it be you swigging pain meds.
