It is not misleading to quote that 25% figure. That report is right on. I can say that 100% of my 3 auto accidents over the past 4 years were caused by the other driver, while talking on the telephone.

I get real edgy on the road when I see all these folks talking on the telephone, those that are holding cell handsets. At any given time during the day, I can see at least 25% of the drivers out there are on cell phones, and of those 75% are women ... and half of those with kids in the car ...

Some folks don't have a clue.
