People are getting zombified with these friggin’ phones! TURN IT OFF AND PAY ATTENTION to what you’re doing!!!
Exactly, I don’t care for smart phones or I phones or whatever. I do have small Tracfone for emergency when I’m on the road. Land line at home (I know, I’m still living in the dark ages).
I forgot, in fact this morning I was picking up a friend and there was a busy intersection (with no lights) with a bunch of college kids crossing. It was my turn to make a right but I stopped because there was a female just standing there texting. I was not sure if she was going to cross or not, she was just totally focus on her phone texting away. So I gradually proceeded forward to make a right turn when suddenly she just move forward fast and hit the crosswalk and I immediately braked.
Many do not pay attention - many do not bother to look up or in front of them, and that is scarey.
TURN IT OFF AND PAY ATTENTION to what you’re doing!!!
I agree they piss me off to no end. Looking down from a high building the other day everybody walking around with their heads down looking at their phones.
The technology is useful but if you are not mature you let it take over. People don’t acknowledge each other anymore and yeah, we can joke about it but this concerns me.
Brotherhood of Man....It is so important!
