So, link please?


Try it from the other side: What is there to suggest the vast majority

Try it this way. *YOU are making the claim. *It's up to YOU
to prove it, not for someone else to disprove it. * That's the
way things work in my world.


This isn't your world. *In the real world there is a word in use you
should learn:http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/refute


Again, that is NOT how it works. YOU made the claim.
YOU provide the proof. It would be a very strange and impossible
world for the burden of proof to be on others to disprove every
ridiculous claim made. Your obvious problem is that you've
dug yourself a hole and have no referencel.




All you need is to note your own internal monologue the next time you
drive.

Let's look at the specific list again
of distracted driving examples you gave that started this:

"texting, sexting, blogging, twittering, chatting, updating Fecesbook
or applying makeup"

Those are serious distractons. All with the possible
exception of chatting involve physical activities too.
Now you want to make it
include a driver just thinking about anything at all
that is not their immeadiate driving task? Like what
time they may arrive where they are going?
How nuts is that? By that definition, as KRW pointed out,
100% of drivers are distracted.

I call BS on you.
