When I worked in downtown Boston walking the sidewalks was a nightmare. Half the people are not looking where they are going. I saw some dingbat plow into a blind man who was using a cane the the edge of buildings for guidance. It got so bad I’d sounds off with a “ dead ahead! “ if one of these idiots was swerving all over the sidewalk.
Most of the offenders were young women. Just outside the shop I worked was one of the busiest streets in boston. The street comes to an intersection with tons of people crossing in each direction. If you stood outside the shop you could easily see inside the cars and see the drivers. So many were texting o dead ng something on their phone. They’d come flying up the street, head down, and finally slam on their breaks.
Again, usually young women but not always.

Women + phone = trouble.......
