A recent study shows kids are getting hurt while texting and walking. Don't do this! Here are 9 other things to avoid when (and we know it's a “when”) you text and walk.
Don't Text Near Hanging Flora
It's probably best to avoid hanging, head-level items in general, particularly if they are sharp — hanging knife mobiles come to mind as a worst-case scenario — but texting your way into a flower pot is probably the most embarrassing.

If You're Going To Text and Walk, Really Text and Walk
I know this might seem counterintuitive — surely stopping to text is better than walking at normal speeds and texting — but it isn't. Wouldn't you rather be bumped by someone walking and texting than be made to rear-end someone who has slowed to a stop to text in the middle of a store aisle? Ah, maybe it depends on a lot. Just don't hold up pedestrian traffic.
