If you click into FB and look at some of the comments on that video, there's one that says it's not illegal if you text and the phone is in a cradle. Is this really true?
I see this do often now, how has it got to the stage were so many morons think it's ok to look down at their phone while driving? They should have their licence removed. Texting is even worse than talking on the phone.
Nothing wrong with a glance down...the ones that baffle me are those driving along, head upright, and holding the phone directly in front of their face !
I was actually referring to the ones who are looking down as they pass you, texting away while hiding their phone from view, not looking at the road whatsoever. I see it all the time, and it's usually all young drivers. Is it any wonder there is so many rear enders on our motorways in rush hour traffic, when there is so many ****wits not even looking at what's in front of them.
My partners brother was stopped in the road waiting to turn right, went some stupid wee bitch ran into the back of him at 30 or 40 mph without touching the brakes. When he glanced in the mirror before impact she was looking down. She got upset and tried to say she never seen him, and that he must not of had his indicator on. But whenever he said let's call the cops then because I think you were on your phone, all of a sudden she admitted it was her fault.
Also £119 in Halfords.
same thing happened outside my house. Ambulance behind a car and she stopped right before the traffic island so they had to stop and then as they started to go around the island on the wrong side she pulled away again.No audio but guessing cop had his siren on. Some people panic and make really stupid moves to get out of the way when they hear a siren bend them.
Mate of mine drives a fire engine was telling me they got stuck behind a slow driver for 1/2 mile, then she stopped dead blocking them in at a traffic island where they could get past.
Anyone use one of these?
