I personally watched an SUV going over 65 mph rear-end a tractor trailer that was stopped. When I got to the SUV, the driver, still alive thanks to an airbag deployment, was still holding her cell-phone. I had seen the TT stopped nearly 100 yards before her. I was about 50 yards directly behind her and started braking immediately, praying I would see the SUV start to slow but saw no brake lights from the SUV. Convinced me to never to text and drive.
