I was caught by the back of my brand new sweater and lifted out of the car. Waking up I realized, my arms were cuffed behind my back and I was being escorted to the hospital entrance.

		<description><![CDATA[You’ve probably noticed lately that a lot of states have been banning text messaging while driving. Well, you can add another one to the list.  North Carolina is the next state to ban texting while driving for all drivers.

The law went into effect December 1, 2009. In order to get a ticket, your car must be in motion while you are texting. For North Carolina the fatal crash rate for 16- to 19-year-olds has trended slightly upward.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[In Colorado a new law will go into effect December 1 that will make texting while driving illegal for all drivers in the state.  For all 16- and 17-year-olds, the law will also outlaw talking on the phone while driving.
