   Do you even read what you write? First you claim assumptions are   
   ill-advised, then you turn right around and claim that your assumption that   
   accident rates must rise if cell phone use is a factor is legit! Pure   
   insanity! Critical thinking is not your forte, clearly.

   Your claim that cell phone use outweighs all other factors isn't proven and   
   can easily be debunked. You are desperately trying to imply causation here.   
   Fail.
