Don’t get me started on cell phone drivers.
On the way home I have to run the gauntlet of women
driving huge SUV’s who are thoroughly distracted by
their phones.

Adding drivers who are high on weed to drunks and that
crowd is not helping matters any.

You think that high driving started with the legalization of pot in a few states? Really?

Actually it might. I’d rather be on the road with a bunch of people high on pot than a bunch of people using cell phones. Potheads are too paranoid when they drive, so they won’t be on their phone, and they’ll be paying attention to the road usually, keeping an eye out for cops.

Yeah, they have slow reaction speeds and they may drive 5 mph under the speed limit, but they’re less dangerous than the distracted cell phone users, in my estimation.

I thought I had seen it all until I was cut off in traffic once.
It was four little old ladies in a car pulling out of a restaurant.
Every single one had a cell phone pressed to their ears.
Neither the driver or any passenger was paying attention to traffic.
Unreal.
