Witness the result of bad driving allegedly by Michael Faria  of Stoughton. He was ALLEGEDLY text messaging on his phone when he ALLEGEDLY plowed into a 58-year-old Brockton man and killed him last weekend.

And you people think that maintaining safe driving distances and constant speeds create a risky situation. Wake up!

More to come…
