Camera phone photo shows Australian school bus driver using SMS while driving

A Sydney, Australia school bus driver who was photographed by two school children using his cellular phone for SMS while driving the bus is under investigation, according ABC News in Australia.

The camera phone photo shows the driver holding his cellular phone in one hand while grasping the steering wheel in the other hand.  The Transport Minister of New South Wales said in the article that closed-circuit TV film footage also would be examined.

I certainly understand the gravity of the situation, although as someone who has smashed into tree limbs and had close calls with cars as I've walked  (not driving) while staring down at information on my cellular phone, I can understand the allure of wireless messaging.
