It seems that just yesterday the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute did a study that showed texting while driving will give you a 23x greater risk of getting into a crash.

Today, reports suggest that a group of Democrats have banded together to introduce legislation that would effectively ban texting while driving throughout the United States.

While this may be of annoyance to those who love to text, it’s probably for the best considering the risks associated with it.

Here’s a question I encountered one too many times. Is any form of cancer related to the use of cell phones? We’re about to find out soon. Interphone researchers have a large study to fully analyze. They are studying 6,400 tumors in patients from 13 countries. Early next year we will find out the results but we have a hint to what the study will say.

So here are some sneak peaks while we wait the final results. Regular cell phones users have a 50% more likely chance to get brain tumors than non-users. Are there any non-users? UK and Scandinavian cell phone users have a 40% greater tumor risk in people that have used the phones for 10 years than those that haven’t gotten that far. I’ve used mine for less than 10 but I am sure I’ll use cell phones for a lot of years to come no matter what the results will be!
