UK, Ireland / Polish drink-driving murderer sentenced to 5.5 years in prison [99]
If they were that sensible they wouldn't do that simply because of how dangerous it is. If they were that smart they would realise they may kill someone and give them a bigger penalty than those 10 years.
Just extrapolating from the simple fact that 99% are sensible people

You base that on what?
No. What stops me is the fact it's dangerous.
Ten years in the slammer would stop 99%.

But that is school teaching certain value. For some tolerance towards others is in the same category. Why teaching one is ok and the other isn't?

Well, the balance must be there. There are generally accepted standards and no parent can just say no to it. And if they do they have to home school. If a parent wanted his kid to be taught that for example Catolicism is the only option and all the other Faith's should be crushed even by force would that be ok?

As someone who lives far away from family and friends I can say smartphone plus certain app are a godsend. Even more so now when travelling is so restricted.

I agree. It's just too convenient.
On the other hand I almost don't use computer outside of work so if I manage to reduce my screen time on the phone I'm on a good path :)
Btw, talking or texting while driving is not a smartphone issue but any phone . I am guilty of making maybe 5 phone calls in my life while driving. And at least one of them was in a dead stop traffic jam when I had to call I will be late
Me too but it's not going to happen if only for the camera

Really? I don't.
I try to limit pointless use. When one article leads to another and so on. I regularly read chosen websites and after that try to put down the phone and take book instead.
I wouldn't want to go completely smartphone free as staying in touch, managing my accounts and doing shopping is so easy...
