Cell phone driving nitwits

Hi ya all (& snowbound),

Don't like to classify people or groups in that matter. It's like meeting one asian dude and his a loser and you call all asians losers. Or anything or anyone as a matter of fact. Hey, I own 2 (4x4 or 4 wheel drive) and drive one (the crappy one of course ) most of the time while me gf drives the other (new, got all the goodies ).

The crappy model does not have a phone system and I do not use headsets (only if i'm running or walking). But, neither do I talk on the phone when driving. If the phone rings, I just let the bloody thing ring, cos I don't give a crap. If, or who ever it is calling is so important, they will call back soon...

But I got two points to make out of this.
ONE;
People live off certain things or objects "TOO" much these days. (not all people) Most of you guys & gals out there would know atleast one person that live off their mobile phone. They can not remove themselves from their mobile less than a day. That I must admit (without judgement) is a very sad life.

TWO;
I very wise man that I knew once said to me "common sense is not so common these days". That I believe so much, it's not funny, but sad.

Best thing now is that I run my own business and LUV it.
As to people on the phone while driving, I just abuse the crap out of them (for fun and their stupidityness). I have even abused one of my friends and later he she called me and said she was stupid and should not be on the phone while driving....... I AGREED WITH HER THEN SO MUCH ..... HAHAHAHAHA

This has nothing about road rage, but people with lack of common sense and a lot of stupidity between their ears.

I hope and wish that nothing happens to any of us here cos some twack was on the pone while driving. Take care guys & gals.....

YOU ALL ROCK

 

I think you rock !

I like your post. Opinion said about this matter with pure style and grace.

I was wondering if you could give me some wonderful tips on how to 'abuse' someone that is careless and lacks control of the wants of his /her desires, at all costs. http://img72.echo.cx/img72/8681/fies8tw.gif
That includes not only yacking while driving, but also driving under the influence, and playing with people's lives at the same time. http://img72.echo.cx/img72/6919/drinkanddrive0mw.gif - (And please don't run your mouth and drive - doh )

A family member was in a crash automobile accident last August, because of the carelessness of the other - and almost died.


I keep seeing women, guys driving and steering their wheel with only one hand, while the other must of course hold the receiver to the ear to hear whats so important about girlfriends new hairstyle- yack yack yack. Blah. These kind of individuals make me ill in my stomach to be very honest. Sorry for the rant, but things like that I get very upset about.


Loved your post SIG4U !!

You have a mouth & brain that seems to have some sense...

 

Agreed to all you said Marja.
Especially, the last sentence...
Nothing else to add to this smart post of yours.

 

I would have thought with the technology today it would have been possible to make mobiles that dont work when moving above a certain speed(10mph?) using a gps system to monitor its motion unless they are attached to some form of hands free kit(if this stops them working on public transport that would be an added bonus!)

 

Well if we are going to talk about Mobiles on the move, what about these direction finders.....how do you see where you want to be and still keep your eye on the road??....another small thing that makes me smile when I see it is, why do peeps hold the phone to either their left ear with their right hand, or their right ear with their left hand??....what's that all about??....Mind you, during the time I spent driving, I've seen people eating their breakfast, pouring drinks from a flask, reading Maps, reading unloading destinations, Newspapers, looking down at something at their feet, trying to find a particular music tape to play etc., etc., the ones I like the best are the Mothers, who, whilst driving over the limit cos the kids are late for school, is trying to reach into the backseats to whack one of her Kids.....Ya Just gotta laugh......



Cochise,

 

I was once cruisin' along I-405, near Wilshire Blvd in LA (the cell phone capital of the world). Glanced over to the see the driver on my right using one hand for the cell phone and the other hand to pick his nose.

Frankly, I didn't wanna KNOW how he was steering the car....

 

I guess he would be pretty much OK just as long as he didn't forget which hand was doing what!!......


Cochise,

 

Using a hands-free telephone device in an automobile does not necessarily improve safety, according to a recent study. A motorist who holds the phone up to his or her ear and one who uses a headset while driving both are four times more likely to get into a crash.
