An executive order from President Obama bans all government employees—including soldiers and postal workers—from texting while driving if they’re working, driving one of Uncle Sam’s cars or using one of his mobile phones. Meaning we’re all next. [Ars]

    I am a responsible person and do not type text messages while driving. Mobile application drivesafe.ly helps me listen to incoming text messages while driving.
