Reminds me of when I was a kid and me and my brother were riding bicycles down a local street lined with occasional parked cars. My brother had a hand-held electronic game (LED football, long before Gameboys or iPhones) and the moron decided that he could play the game while riding his bike.
All went according to his multi-tasking plan - until his inattentive cycling ran into the back end of a parked car.
He learned his lesson that day about inattentive driving, but unfortunately when people do this sort of thing while driving a motor vehicle they more often than not hurt or kill others, not just themselves.
We can’t let ourselves be ruled by a “nanny state” that criminalizes every “boneheaded” activity like this, but we as a civilization need to shame those who act irresponsibly, not just for being stupid, but for emboldening wouldbe tyrants to take away our rights and personal choices one by one.
Driving comes with rules. I know there are those (not you) who seem to think that any rule is an unconstitutional infringement of their rights, but most of us know there are things that you just shouldn’t be allowed to do and drive, like drinking and texting. The phrase Nannystate is even losing it’s sting when people use it over every thing.
