Except I'm not stating an opinion merely pointing out your flawed logic and showing how the data provided cannot prove anything. So now this is just a giant case of anecdotal evidence.

In my experience, it's not just teenagers yapping on the cell phone while they drive. In fact, I see more middle aged people doing it than teenagers. It's one of my biggest pet peeves. I really think causing an accident while talking on a cell phone should be punishable at the same degree as drunk driving. Unfortunately, it would be harder to prove.

I had a friend who used to read the paper as he drove to work. Needless to say, I went off on him for that, too.

Don't tell me you didn't see it coming. It had to be said.

D*mn b*tches can barely drive as it is. Now I get to be surrounded by little girls/women that are driving a 2 ton vehicle with one hand while incessantly gabbing on their cell with the other. These b*tches are more dangerous than drunk drivers imho. At least drunk drivers are attempting to drive, these women make no pretence to being able to drive, they figure if they run into anything with that big suv they'll be ok.

Phoenix drivers suck ***. They do not understand the concept of double turn lanes. I do not understand why, there is a line! Stay on your side of the line, it is a simple concept. This morning, a woman in an SUV decided she wanted my lane in the middle of the turn. It was a good thing there was another double turn lane to the left of me I could turn into instead. It happens all the time and drives me up a wall.

50/50 ratio of people who do have insurance, and those that dont.

25/25 of the drivers that do have it half doesnt have the correct coverages for there needs.

California may have a ton of drivers, but at least they know how to driver, unlike the backwater hicks here.

Thank you, Samira, for providing the facts that these gentlemen will continue to deny in their eagerness to jump on the "dumb *****" bandwagon.



These dumb wenches cause countless accidents without even realizing it. On the phone, their driving experience is more like "watching a movie" to them.

Unfazed, and continuing the cell phone conversation, they just keep on driving, oblivious to the wrecks they cause.

Real world observation > White collar statistics.

I guess it has allot to do with where you live and what you're inclined to notice. I by far and away have the biggest problems with Loud, obnoxious, backyard installed lift kitted pickup trucks, driven by testosterone drunk shirtless rednecks than anything else. That being closely followed by geezers pulling trailers that are far to heavy for their pickup trucks at speeds that far exceed what they can handle safely. If you have a 2 foot lift and 36 inch tires or are pulling a 15,000LB 5th wheel your vehicle is not safe at 85 miles an hour on the expressway. so GET IN THE FUC[/I]KING RIGHT LANE and stay there.

My husband and I got rear ended on Christmas Eve by an elderly lady doing about 55 mph and we were at a dead stop. We are puzzled as to why she didn't even apply her breaks or slow down. We can't figure out if it was becuase she was 1. on a cell phone or 2. Just elderly and has slow reflexes. ( I learned later that she had had a stroke 4 years earlier). Needless to say my car is totaled.

So I have to say, sometimes senior citizens should not be driving. I know that this is the difference to having independence and becoming a shut in. But, you hear from time to time how an elderly person ran into a store front or ran people over. Crazy.

Has anyone ever been talking to someone driving whose gotten into an accident while you were talking to them? I haven't, but have this paranoia about it.

There are a couple people I have to do business with that insist on doing it while driving despite my protestations.

Would you feel at all responsible?

A little off topic but I have a question for all of you. I am currently stuck in this hell hole called San Antonio and the roads here drive me nuts. THEY HAVE YIELD SIGNS AT THE END OF THE ON-RAMPS AND LEAVE ABOUT 20 FEET TO MERGE IN 65+ MPH TRAFFIC!!!!!

I am from chicago and I know for a fact the roads out there aren't that fuc[/sm]ked up. Anyone else have to deal with this shi[sm]t where they live?

Back on topic.

I don't care what statistics say. As many times as I have almost been hit or run off the road I would say 7 out of 10 times it's by a woman and 9 out of 10 times the bi[sm][/sm]tch is on the phone.

One type of driver I hate are the old ladies with the big hats. The bigger the hat the slower they drive.

The worst thing I have ever seen was on my way to work one day and traffic was backed up bad for some reason. Come to find out one of the lanes was being blocked by some lady who was doing 20 in a 55 because she decided to read a book while she was driving.

An entirely different issue but ok. When do you tell your grandparents enough is enough and take the keys?

There are other kinds?

I could see taking the keys from my grandmother, but not my grandfather. Thats a mixture of pride and skill for him. He is a dangerous driver, no doubt. He's dangerous because he still has the reflexes of a 21 year old and the driving mentality of an 18 year old crossed with a grumpy old man. He was a fighter pilot and is still a competent driver/pilot at 75 years of age. Quite amazing actually.

It is a very difficult thing to do. We had to do this with my Grandmother last year. Realistically, she probably should not have been driving for at least the last three years. Her peripheral vision was pretty much non-existant and she had bad vision in her left eye. It was painful for her and us and she cried the day we sold her car. But it was not only for her safety but other people on the road.

She now lives in an assisted living facility where they drive everyone around so she has not completely lost her independence. She can still get out and socialize. But sadly, this is not always possible for other senior citizens. It's very sad.

When you realize they are putting themselves and others in danger every time they get behind the wheel. We had to take my grandpa's keys away before he died becuase he was a very dangerous driver. Unfortunately he would always hide a set and start driving again even if they searched his apartment they couldn't find all his sets. Thankfully no one ever died from his driving.

On another note why don't people know how to use 4-way stops? If the person in front of you just went, then it is obviously not your turn.
