A coupleof weeks ago, guest blogger Liz Atwood mentioned that her son is learning to drive and her concerns about teens texting and driving, which has come up in a new AT&T campaign called It Can Wait.

The It Can Wait campaign is making a stop in Baltimore this week as part of Sailabration, and as part of it, AT&T is playing host to a texting and driving simulator that shows exactly how dangerous the practice can be. The simulator will be just outside the AT&T booth Friday-Sunday.

This is the first time the simulator has come to Maryland.
