I never said females were the only ones, just on this particular ride that I took, I only saw females. On other occasions, I have seen men on their devices while driving, of course.

However, I must say, it does seem to me that I see females doing things like this, including putting their make up on while driving on the interstate, much more often than I see males doing such things. This is just how I recall my own personal experiences, but I am not sure how others may see the same things.

I never look into rigs or other such large vehicles, they are just too high up, and I don’t like to take my eyes off the road while I am driving, so I cannot really comment on that. I will say that what I fear the most living here on the two-lane highways of death in Florida are the logging trucks doing 80 mph separated from me by about a 5 inch yellow line, some air, and nothing else X_X

I agree with you about the logging trucks and narrow roads here in Florida. My SUV being higher up makes it easier for me to see up high and when my husband is driving and I’m sitting in the passenger seat, I see plenty. The problem is more about drivers who have respect for other drivers vs those who think that they will live forever without ever making a mistake.

Like the woman who hit me. I saw her face with her cell phone to her ear talking as if no one else in the world existed, and there was no place for me to go to get out of her way. No one else matters to some of these people and unfortunately some of them recognize the error of their ways the hard way. If they are lucky, the hard way won’t involve innocent people.
