when someone cuts me off in traffic or turns left in front of me, is it fair to assume its someone?

Question

on their cell phone clueless that there is something else going on in the world besides their selfish life?

Answer 1

you forgot that these types multitask....changing radio stations , applying makeup, reading a map, yelling at the kids, eating a cheesburger, looking for a different cd, wanking..... it goes on

Answer 2

I have really bad road rage, I don't think you can blame it on the cell phone use alone, because I talk on the phone while I am driving, I think people are cutting others off because they are in too much of a hurry to get where they need to be, but what people don't realize is that's what causes traffic if everyone would be courteous to others on the road, we would all get there much faster and much more peacefully.

Answer 3

LMAO... definitely clueless, probably cell phone. We had black ice over the whole town a couple of weeks ago and traffic was nearly at a standstill. I was passing (@ 20mph) a woman in the middle lane. There were cars sliding all over, jumping curbs, fender benders, ect. happening right around us and as I pass I see she is on the phone! Needless to say she got the one finger salute from me!!

Answer 4

Just try to be safe, the roads are so much more dangerous that what we realise. It could also be someone messing with their radio, staring off into space whilst holding their coffee in morning traffic. I saw that this morning and had to laugh.

Anyway, just be safe, always look out for the other person, it doesn't matter who is in the right or wrong. Just stay alive on the roads.

Answer 5

It's definitely frustrating, but you cannot assume it's someone on their cell phone. By reacting to them, you may be causing the same situation unknowingly to someone else on the road. We all know we know how to drive, but unfortunately not at the same time on the same roads! :o) Just be patient....as much as possible anyway.

Answer 6

You cant assume they are on a cell phone but probably clueless.

Answer 7

Yes, for the most part. I always feel those people are in a rush and have forgotten they're not the only ones on the road. I like them in front of me, however, rather then riding my behind.

Answer 8

i agree that driving on a cell phone is not safe. but why is fair to assume that because they are on their phone that they are selfish? maybe they are on the phone with a charity and drriving there to give them a 5000 dollar check. or maybe they are on the phone with the police department reporting a burglary. or maybe he is on the phone with his wife who is going into labor with his first born son!!!

Answer 9

yes it is fair to assume that because most of the time i find that to be the case. I have nothing against talking while driving, I occassionally do it myself. But for those who can't, shouldn't.

Answer 10

Yes I also think its okay to give a shout out - Hang Up & Drive!
