Texting and driving

[ArtetaMagic]

I walk my eldest to school each morning and the amount of mums I see driving and using their mobile with the kids sat in the back is rediculous. It's normally the ones in the flash cars, range rovers etc.

One of my biggest bug bears. Probably a 20 minute round trip at most. The messages will still be there at the end. Get off ur F'in phone!!

Young mothers pushing pushchairs while stuck on phone, had a few rammed into me and when I turn round they busy on phone

Let me guess……they also park up on double yellow lines outside the school?

As other posters have said, it seems common place now.
Needs clamping down on with bigger penalties. Shouldn't need it, but if it led to an instant driving ban the idiots MIGHT think twice.
Wronguns the lot of them.

….and only live 1/2 mile away. No wonder obeseness is such a problem when parents rarely walk their kids.

I hardly ever text and drive.

Most of the time I can't enter my PIN when driving and give up.

How about sparking up a ciggie, is that in the same ball park or is that ok?

At traffic lights its bad for this, soon as people stop they reach for the phone

For the last 2(?) yrs here in australia they've been rolling out 'look down' cameras at traffic lights, junctions and bridges and nicking drivers like with speed cameras

Another corker of an ad in this thread given the topic

The amount of people I see on my Instagram posting stories of them recording their music in the car (as if anyone actually cares remotely) is insane.

I’m no grass, but I would love to see these posts be presented as evidence in a court of law, their licenses removed and their crap taste in music and their craving for social validation being the reason for it.

Hopefully, this person was walking when taking photos of other people on their phones and not doing it whilst in their own car.
