We've all probably had a momentary lapse of road rage because of some key hole talking on their cell... Likewise, most all of us have used our phones while mobile where we probably shouldn't be...here's an instance, albeit a horrible example, of another reason to focus on the road...

Woman's Severed Arm Found Clutching a Cell Phone After Car Accident

i dont own a cell phone

and god help the person that hits me if there yapping away on that foolish thing..

...zap!

 

If they issued hunting licenses to take out people talking on their cell phones while driving, I would soooooo take up hunting.

 

I put in about 2000 miles of urban driving a week. Cell phones are tops on my list of stress issues.

 

2/3's are women. Anyone else see a pattern here?

 

 

Now that's funny, I doncare who ya are!

 

This is what you need

I remember seeing this car weaving back and forth in the right lane. So much so, that I couldn't even go around it. I thought this person must be drunk. After a time, I finally was able to pass and as I went by, I quickly looked down and saw a woman staring at her cell phone trying to dial a number or something. She wasn't even looking at the road.

I probably did a foolish thing by passing, as I had just taken delivery of my new F150. New vehicles tend to be accident magnets, if you know what I mean

BTW- The woman was driving some kind of tiny Toyota.

 

This is common in Lost Angeles and is made worse in that the lanes on the freeways are the thinnest in the nation.

We can only hope that she, and everyone else that stares at their keypad and not the road eventually plow into a pole or tree or wall (and not take out any other cars in the process) and then die a slow, painful death.

 

My (then) teenage daughter wrecked her Camry a few years ago. She ran right smack into a Ford Superduty trailer hitch. Did about two thousand dollars in damage to the Camry. Scraped some rust off the trailer hitch on the Superduty.

I know she was dialing her cellphone, but she would never admit to it. Said she was looking at a cute guy walking along Darned Toyota was never right after that. Finally got rid of it and bought a Focus. Nice little car

 

Whatever it is you drive you must live in it.

 

Close.

 

Same here!! Never had much incentive to get a cell phone but if I did I doubt I'd talk on it while driving. In fact most of the time it wouldn't even be turned on because the only reason I'd ever have one is so's I could call out in the event of an emergency.

But to add to the frustration of dealing with driving cell phone users. . .text messaging. . .can you believe there are people out there who try to text message while driving?? Be afraid, be very afraid!

 

Make any trips in and out of Salem, Missouri in that rig Odin? I know US Foods has a pretty big presence there...
