And in english?

Ok, I'll try to decipher what you have said.

Basically you where distracted for exactly the amount of time it takes for the kid you didn't know was there, or the roo hiding behind the bushes to come running out onto the road. You where also distracted for long enough to not notice the car in front had decided to stop.

I can not think of anything more dangerous that SMS whist driving, unlike using hands free mobile which they still claim reduces your concentration, sending an SMS means your not giving you full attention to the road. Even if you fumbling around without looking at your mobile and only looking at the road your still thinking on what your hand is doing and not what your car is doing.

I personally think the copper was right on money this time.
