I've started wearing the seat-belts like underwear. The latter I had to change when i missed a head-on (by what seemed like 6") with some dipshite checking emails and riding over the center line at 55 mph

I probably have 1,000 posts on here while driving.
#sorrynotsorry
Red lights mostly, but in traffic I don't need to look at screen long and can type without looking at the phone.

Or people starring at their phones at red lights and not going when it turns green until someone honks
I've had a few women flick me off because I honked after they hadn't moved for a full 5+ seconds. Unreal that they think I'm the a-hole in that situation. FTR I don't lay on the horn or anything obnoxious, just a friendly "GTFO your phone honk"

I've noticed over half the people I pass that are going under the speed limit in the left lane are looking down at their phones. As if we already didn't have enough of a problem w/ idiot left lane drivers.

This too is an epidemic.

I'm definitely a honker. A couple of seconds and I'll hit the horn. I was behind one young girl a few months ago and I had to honk at her 3 lights in a row.

Pretty sure Texas or some counties in TX just started a pretty hammering law if caught using your phone while driving. Let me find it.

I saw a guy in his early 20s on 190 holding his phone in front of his face all the way from Erwinville to 415. It was the craziest thing I've ever seen. He must have been watching a TV show or movie.

It is past time for the rise of the self driving car. It’s the only way these people will get anywhere safely without pissing me the hell off

i have zero issue with anyone actually talking on their phones, i do it myself as needed, but the ones who are looking art their phones reading or sending texts are the issue since they arent even paying attention while driving.

Phones / apps are also designed to make people use then as often and possible. They target the brains rewards centers like drugs and gambling machines.
The tech companies dont want to show their algorithms about how hard they try and influence peoles time management and decision making.
