Whether you're driving while chatting on the phone, or not looking both ways when crossing a busy street because you're texting... Cell phone use has caused deaths in 'accidents' (although it's not really an accidents, as accidents are things that could NOT have been prevented in any way). But... Do you think this could just be a form of natural selection? Some of us can't handle the technology too well and become addicted to it. The addiction causes us to use the technology when we shouldn't; if we die, couldn't that be natural selection?

Yes but in a different way. Those who can't multitask efficient shall be eliminated. But Humans don't go through natural selection anymore D=

texting while driving is like reading while driving. if you're dumb enough to do it, you deserve to die.

Very possible. I think people who tend to get over their heads with these type of things kind should expect the worse.
