Uhg, that bugs me.  People sitting at light after it turns green doing whatever they are doing on their phone.  Not saying they should get a ticket, but common pay attention.

Just because you can doesn't mean you should.

It's a perfect time to validate the horn functions.

A friend said a buddy of his third cousin's sisters stepson got 2 DUIs the same way.
How you ask?
He was in the drivers seat with the radio on. The car was not running. They got him with intent to drive.

Total BS.

Moral of this? Sit in the passengers seat.

For those of us with kids that drive...I am adamantly opposed to anyone texting and driving.  It's just so damn dangerous.

does your opposition include the use of Waze and/or GoogleMaps (or crApple maps)?

I would like to to say yes because I would rather them(my kids) not do it while driving but I know that is not realistic.

Yeap. No sense of direction is not good. But I'm guilty.

Great article.

This is Jay. And he'll admit it.

Me: which way do you go to Morris.

Jay:  I don't know. I Just follow the purple line

This is 100% accurate. I feel like I have an obligation to use every bit of my unlimited data while driving. Sometimes I turn on waze and google maps at the same time. Meanwhile streaming Apple Music and watching live tv. Usually I text a few people to let them know what I'm watching and stuff.
