She was studying to be an EMT at Massasoit Community College.

Should have been studying how to wear a seat belt.

At least she didn't take abyone else out with her.

If they put it up for vote to ban talking on cellphones while driving, I'd vote YES in a minute. The very last thing I want is to be killed because some twit was rehashing last night's date with her girlfriend.

I'd vote for that too!

Just last moth, I almost got sideswiped by a woman in a silver Camry coming onto RTE 4 from Solomons(Dowell Rd.). I glanced over a this car coming up the on-ramp, and there she was - cellphone stuck in her ear, just a-jabbering away - clueless what was happening to her left.

Hit the brakes, veer left! Thank Goodness nobody was in that lane.

She was paying enough attention to know she was going to die.
