It's not just teens though there are to many idiots out there.
A few weeks back I seen a really bad case, this fella was on his way to work flying down the freeway and texting god knows who. I was the passenger in the vehicle beside him and not completely awake otherwise I would have done my duty and got his plate number and reported him. I don't know the guy but that sort of casual disregard for his life and those around him is reckless.

This scares me to death! I too have witnessed the stupidity of a mother in a 'crossover' type vehicle texting while driving with her KNEE AND SHE HAD TWO SMALL CHILDREN UNDER THE AGE OF 5 IN THE BACK SEAT!
I was mortified!!!
Thanks Chiefster, I have to say I get sick to my stomach and outraged everytime I watch that video. Those shots of the little girl asking mommy and daddy to wake up, and the obvious shot of the dead baby make me angry.Quote:

We already have enough brain-dead drivers out here as it is without adding cellphones, drinking and drugs to the list.
You're welcome, and I feel the exact same way man.Quote:
