Daily Show Spoofs New CNN iPhone App [Video]
In: web resources
4 Oct 2009
CNN rightfully warned viewers against driving while texting this week, as studies have found it to be more dangerous than drunk driving.
The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart, however, noticed an amusing irony: the awesome new CNN iPhone app includes a feature that lets you check traffic reports on your phone while in the car. These mixed messages were, of course, comedy gold for Stewart, who hypothesized that the app’s users could check in on a 5-car pileup shortly before turning it into a 6-car pileup.
Thankfully CNN had a sense of humor about the spoof, choosing to air the clip on its own channel – the hilarious clip is embedded below.

It depends on whether or not you live in a "no fault" state. If you don't, your insurance company could pay for the damages to the car ahead of you that you hit, and go after the uninsured driver for compensation to the insurance company. You will not be charged with an accident surcharge on your policy since it was not your fault.
