Got stopped in this on my way to NOLA on Friday. Absolutely deflating to drive past. Flatbed trailer cocked at a 45deg angle, point went straight through windshield.

They were stopping traffic after I went through to try and land a helicopter.

Heh, one chicken downvotes me, but doesn't come and say how I'm wrong enough about to get his Downvote. Typical

Oh no doubt but im saying all it takes is a split second. My brother owns a small trucking inc and he tells me about these things. He once saw a young woman just going in town in a 45 zone. Big rig was stopped behind other cars in traffic and the young woman in the car behind him was on her phone texting, ran into his back dot bumper and got over halfway logged under his flatbed and decapitated her. She was texting. Sad stuff. From what I gather, this problem happens often. He also says countless times someone will pass him and people are endlessly looking down at their phones like you said about the duration of dangerous behavior while driving on a phone. Scary thought.
