About Jim

Finally!

I have been waiting for this! This article is
dedicated to all the Realtors without handsfree (despite the article) and those
who have almost run me off the road due to their need to hold their cell phones
to their ears and drive/eat/change lanes/put on

“”If you put a
20-year-old driver behind the wheel with a cell phone, their reaction times are

of Utah psychology professor David Strayer. “It’s like instantly aging a large
number of drivers.”

The article
at Livescience.com is great!
