Eastham woman hurt in Route 6 accident
CAPE COD TIMES
EASTHAM - A local woman was taken to Cape Cod Hospital after a two-car accident on Route 6 yesterday morning.

Dwight Genius, 37, of Hyannis was distracted by his cell phone and drove north through a red light at the intersection of Nauset Road, Salt Pond Road and Route 6, police said.

In an effort to avoid a car entering from Nauset Road on his right, Genius steered his car left and collided with a Jeep Liberty entering Route 6 from Salt Pond Road. The Jeep was driven by Susan Ohara, 53, of Eastham.

Ohara was taken to the hospital, where she was treated and released, a hospital spokesman said.

Genius and his passenger were not injured.

Eastham police closed one lane of traffic northbound and one lane southbound for about a half hour.

The accident remained under investigation yesterday.

I don't think they need to spend to much time investigating.

i was watching this science show on cell phone usage and what it does to the human brain.... all frequencies bouncing around now
from thousands of cell phones, tv's, radio's ect... in our society.

and they had all this super scientific gadgetry hooked up to measure brain functioning ......on this girls head.

but they said : that while using your cell phone, your brain is more impaired than when high on marijuana. :uhuh:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
it was also stated .....somewhere else, that while on a cell phone a drivers ability to drive was more impaired than someone who was driving under the influence of alcohol.
