By TOM KERTSCHER, Milwaukee Journal Sentinel

Katy Johnson smacked her forehead into a tree branch while walking and texting on her cell phone a couple of weeks ago.

ā€œI’m pretty sure I was juggling two texts at a time,ā€ the 18-year-old Wauwatosa resident said, recalling one text was from her dad and one from a friend.

There are so many restrictions on them where I live they aren't even worth having.
