   Your lousy opinion doesn't have relevance to me. What I care about is   
   factual data. The facts speak for themselves. Your silly argument has   
   failed.   
      
   > None of that matters   
      
   It absolutely matters to people who are directly affected by it. The fact   
   is people are injured and even killed by drivers using cell phones. You can   
   try to dismiss it and ignore it a you want, but you cannot change reality.

   That's an asshole's statement. If it happens to you or someone you love,   
   it's significant. Even if it happens to a stranger, it's significant. You   
   just refuse to admit it because it doesn't fit your narrative. You are a   
   sorry excuse of a human being.
