I’ve done many stupid things in my life, but I am terrified of using a phone while driving; here in NJ there is simply too many things to hit while driving.
I see little enforcement of laws for this; people are constantly driving 45 in the fast lane on highways using their phones. It may be too late in most cases, but cops are looking at phones when accidents are happening with no clear cause. There is talk of stiffening penalties to mirror DUI convictions (a motor vehicle violation, not a crime here in NJ); driving impaired is driving impaired...
Yikes.
I used to drive the turnpike on the way to Asbury Park *before* they even existed and I was mortified, way back then.
Where the hell are those people all going in such in hurry?
[and why could I get *into* Newark but not back *out*??] :D
