In the past year I have seen more and more of the 25 and below bunch driving with their elbows while holding the phone and texting while driving.
The last text message was more like
I C U SOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
I was riding down the highway a couple weeks ago, and a new driver (we have graduated licensing and signage on vehicles here) was texting in the left lane.
Well, she WAS in the left lane, but was wandering into mine! The look of abject terror on her face when I slapped her passenger’s side window said it all: She had completely forgotten she was driving! At 60 MPH this is NOT a good thing!
I’m no technophobe, but there has to be a way to prevent such flagrant and dangerous inattention. Laws are not the answer, but what would be an effective way of preventing such dangerous behaviour?
