New Jerseyans Terrible Drivers...When It Comes to Texting

071910texting.jpg According to a new poll from Fairleigh Dickinson University, about 25% percent of Jersey drivers have admitted to texting while driving. That's up 10% from just two years ago. The study also shows older people have been texting more, with 17% of Jersey drivers between the ages of 44 and 60 admitting to texting while driving. But no Jersey-set study would be complete without a knock at New York. When asked where the worst drivers in the country came from, 56% said the Big Apple. Hey, it's not our fault we can't deal with your stupid jughandles.
