If the guy in the next car over is dealing with a family emergency he needs to be pulled-over on the side of the road while he’s on the phone.
I can understand that that person would be caught up in dealing with the family emergency. Which is all the more reason they should pull over and talk or test, rather than risk another family emergency for them and one for the people around them.
Where I see the flaw in the logic of jamming signals for those around you, is that those determined to make a call/send that test, will become fixated on doing that to the point they drive even worse.
I'm not even saying all cell phone users drive badly while they are using them. I am saying the worst drivers I have seen for quite a while have all been using their phones.
Pardon, but can you explain what kind of family emergency had to be dealt with by phone in that very moment rather then pulling off at the next exit and calling the person back or listening to a message?
“The guy in the next car over could be dealing with a family emergency.”
Guess it was worth a try. But no one’s buying.
Possible in a few cases. In most cases however the cell phone users we see talk for 15 minutes plus and are usually laughing and not paying attention to their driving.
