So not a lot of people are without cell phones today. Those same cell phones are causing MORE problems. When you think of things like that, you think of texting and driving or even talking on cell phones while driving, but cell phones are causing a new crop of problems overseas.

A new campaign was started in Tokyo recently to caution against using smartphones while walking, which has recently caused several accidents.

What kind, you ask?

People walking with their smartphones (ie – texting, browsing the Internet, etc.) has caused distracted users to run into and knock other people into train tracks from the platforms as they wait.

So, Todd and Cynthia are going to talk about those smartphone users around 8:40 and what we see in our area. Make sure to chime in your feelings on Facebook!
