Comment on Putting on your seatbelt and not using your phone while driving is now considered a "challenge"?
Evkob@lemmy.ca 7 months agoI’m also a motorcyclist (but hold the motor) and my experience is very similar to yours.
I almost got hit a few weeks back by a car driver trying to turn right on red whilst on a fucking Facetime call, with the phone held up right in front of their face. If I hadn’t been in a rush I would have let them have an earful.
Like, please don’t ever use your phone while driving, but if you absolutely have to be a despicable human being, can you at least look away from the screen when navigating through intersections??

Even in a cradle the “phone brain” is real.
I got a text and opened it, was a link to a YT video from a friend and without thinking I just opened it and let the video play and was like “Hang the fuck on a second, IM DRIVING WHY THE FUCK WOULD I OPEN THAT!?!”
Once I caught myself doing it I was really annoyed at myself.
