Treehugger.com has posted an article titled “Digital billboards are an urban blight and probably dangerous too”.   And what’s the evidence?

• A comic strip.

• A Virginia Tech study of distracted drivers which studied texting, using a phone, reading, writing, using a touch screen menu and looking at an auto instrument panel panel.  Nothing in the study addressed billboards.

• A statement that “safety advocates and lawyers in Orange County, Los Angeles and throughout California” claim that digital signs contribute to car accidents.

Treehugger, you need to do  little bit better than that.
