I am sick to death of dodging distracted idiots yapping on their mobiles.
Oh dear.
Your attitude, and your ( I assume) support for regulation is how it happens. Then you look up, and instead of just doing what you do, people are asking “is this legal” before passing gas and taking a step.
Creativity and innovation are stymied, independent thought is destroyed, and the government bigger and more expensive.
Agreed and I’ll go a few steps more.
I am sick and tired of people who think they can drive but can’t drive a stick shift or understand the dynamics of motion.
Want to drive an automatic? Fine, learn on stick first. Earn the privilege to drive an automatic. Same with self driving cars.
Me too, but what does that have to do with the subject at hand?
Especially when they are bleating in public thereby forcing all of us to listen. (When that happens I stop what I am doing and stare intently at the loud-mouth until they leave or stop. The ugly faces from these people is astounding. . .they are yelling into their phones and we are supposed to act like we don’t hear. . .but when we do show we can hear, they get all huffy about it. . .but I digress. . . )
In the car. . .what is the difference between a chronic radio dialer-twister, CD-changer or some guy that is arguing with someone in the car or conducting a one-sided debate with some talk radio show. All are distracted.
