Most people don’t drive their cars, they aim them.

True. If I focus too hard on the road I may spill my beer

Most fricking retards on the road don’t have a clue what is happening anywhere except for what is a few feet in front of their vehicle

and when you add 450+ HP that they can't or don't know how to manage, the stage is set for something bad in their future.

heard something today about more people getting killed due to texting than DWI.

no doubt in my mind this is true

at least the drunks are looking at the road and its usually way less crowded

I saw a guy in my rear view mirror coming up on me weaving erratically through traffic and when he got along side me, there he is, tapping away on his phone in a makeshift bracket that is taped to his steering wheel. WTF?

I remember hearing a few years ago that the numbers were close, so I am sure it has passed the number of DWI.

My niece got into two wrecks because she was texting. Her first time she ran off the road into a ditch and the second time she hit someone in a parking lot. She was lucky she didn't hurt anyone else or herself, but the scary thing is, she probably still hasn't learned her lesson. She was still in HS the first time and the second time was about 2 years later. And there are probably many more just like her on the road.

Have you ever been in a grocery store? It's filled with people in their own world as if nobody else around them exists. People oblivious to the fact that they are in the way. Inconsiderate and completely unaware to the world around them.

And that's just pushing a shopping cart while walking.

These morons drive. Imagine them behind the wheel.

I've observed this as well.

Everything is in slow motion from Lafayette to Baton Rouge. The government did this on purpose to cut down on fatalities.
