Sitting behind someone at the lights when the light changed and they don't move until someone blows their horn you notice they were texting.
I worry when I look in the rearvision mirror and the driver has their head down presumably texting. I become conscience of keeping out of their way.
I find all this somewhat annoying...is it just me or do others, have others noticed and been annoyed by this behaviour.
It seems dangerous which is really what gets to me.
Oh man, don't get me started... one of my "friends" on Facebook actually takes photos and uploads them while she's driving!
There should be a system of some sort where if you're in your car and the ignition is on it disables calls/messaging.
I don't know if it's because I have kids, or just because I'm an old lady trapped in a young person's body, but it really gets my blood boiling. Haha it's times like that when I wish I could be an undercover cop and just pull over everyone I see using their phone on the road.
