Yes. Now I'm seeing idiots on bicycles going through red lights..yep, talking on the phone. Today I had a very loud mouth "woman" in a wheelchair "shout" at me If I had an extra cigarette.
Why?
Why else... she was yelling at some poor bastard on her cell phone....!

Two weeks ago, I'm returning home from work on the train.
It's about 10:30 pm. This car will hold about 60 people, but due to the time, I was alone, or so I thought, as this girl sitting 4 rows up from me on the other side was engaged in a very animated conversation.
Well I "try" to tune her out.. and read my book, until I hear details about her sex life. Grrrrrrr.
This was after I learned she was a second year college student, her parents are *******, and she cannot speak without using the word "like" EVERY 3rd or 4th word.

I'm already extreamly annoyed, then, as she turns her head, I see she had 2 CELL PHONES, one in each ear, and is talking to two people at once!!! OMG.

Get this: during this episode, she even forgot who one of these
people were, and had to ask, "Who is this? Oh yeah, Kelly! Whatz Zup?!!!"

OMG.

As bad as this is, I think to myself.. thank God she's on the train, and not behind the wheel of a car, as I'm POSITIVE that would have make no difference to her.

I want to run and hide... this crap has got to stop.
People are so incredibly inconsiderate and stupid.

Okay... thanks. I feel a bit better now!
(But not much!)

You must live in Florida also!! LOL I can't believe how much drivers down here SUCK! Being from up north originally, and having driven in Boston, Washington DC and NYC, I can safely say that people try things in cars around Tampa, that I would be afraid to while WALKING!!

The rubbernecking invariably ALWAYS causes another accident on top of the one caused by someone who was talking on their phone. I've noticed that people drive slower while on the phone until you pass them, then its like a drag race. Pick one, drive to your destination, or talk on the F*******phone!!! You can't have both!!

specific I hate once I see this, exceptionally once I see it just about reason an twist of destiny, yet i do no longer think of speaking on your cellular telephone mutually as driving could desire to be unlawful. Reckless driving frequently could be led to by something from determining on your nostril, reading mutually as driving, messing with the radio, achieving on your water bottle that fell on the floor, alcohol, loss of sleep, and so on, and so on. we've all executed something a minimum of quicker or later it is almost led to an twist of destiny...we are all human beings working a extensive, risky device. Suggesting that somebody could desire to be shot for this kind of component is taking it somewhat far (perhaps you're exaggerating?) Reckless driving could desire to be penalized in some way or yet another, no depend what it replaced into that led to the guy tocontinual that way. Having all varieties of rules against issues like texting mutually as driving, speaking on the telephone mutually as driving, eating and driving (driving mutually as you're rather drained is extra risky than driving once you have had a pair beverages) would not make any sense to me. Punish the reckless driving.

I really dont mind if someone is talking on their cellphone, so long as they are courteous enough to drive in the slow lane and not be speeding.

I 'd like to lay on the horn if their window is open. As for watching accidents on the other side of the highway it's just gruesome curiosity. They think they will see a body.

yes i hate it but i do it sometimes....only if i can't find my way...like today i was lost in a city trying to find their library so i called my sister-in-law who used to live there to help me out.

well you can't help but look when their is an accident. but i don't stare i just see how bad it was or if i actually know someone who was in it by seeing the vehicles. i've been in an accident and i can't stand looking at them....where mine was people came out of their homes to look at everything and wouldn't leave
