Oh man that's horrible!


I rear-ended another car over the summer cuz it was a green light and I thought everyone was moving along so I glanced down for a second to check my text message. Next thing I know, bam! (Ew that sounded disgustingly Emeril.) Oops. Luckily, not much damage since I wasn't going fast at all. From now on I don't touch my phone when I'm driving.

That teenager deserves a lot more prison time for freaking KILLING A PERSON! I think there should be laws instituted punishing those who are being idiots and hurt someone with their idiocy.

Who the hell would be stupid enough to look at a text message, write a text message,or for that matter do anything that involves use of their digits while driving? Seriously...are we all losing our common sense now? These things infuriate me. Cellphones belong in the glove-compartment while the owner is driving, nowhere else..well save a purse.

I know. *hangs head* I was impatient.

Not as bad as putting makeup on while driving though. Imagine that mascara wand going straight into your eye.

I would pay money to see someone's mascara wand enter their eyeball if they were putting it on while driving.

I know I shouldn't be, but I can't help but be surprised by the bottomless depth of the stupidity of the human race. What kind of colossal fking retard would apply makeup, send a text message, or read ANYTHING BUT A GODDAMN ROAD SIGN, while operating a 2000+ lb. piece of machinery moving 50 mph?

Some people really just shouldn't be allowed out of their homes. Or to live.

Uh, there are. Manslaughter and criminally negligent homicide come to mind. They probably went easy on this kid because he's a kid, and kids are generally idiots. And yes, I realize I'm only 3 years older than the person in question.

Is it similar in the states?

Different states have different laws. Here in New Jersey, for example, I think it's illegal to talk on a cell phone while driving, but a cop couldn't stop you just for talking on the phone -- he'd have to find some other reason to pull you over and add that charge to it.

Other states are tougher, and some don't have any laws on it at all. But if you cause an accident while on the phone, I think police can use that to jack up the charges as reckless driving no matter what the law is on cell phones.
