Man Drives Off Bridge While Texting: "i Need To Stop Texting"


Recommended Posts

These are the people loose on our highways and byways.

I swear to God, we need to ask our Congressmen to introduce a bill that says motorcyclists have the right to SHOOT anyone they see texting on the freeway.

 

How many times have you looked over at the car next to you, only to see some dipshit texting?

 

I'd say it was Darwin at work, but they take innocent people with them...

 

This has now officially passed drinking as the primary cause of traffic deaths. Un-freaking-believeable.

Shooting would be one way, it would help with this planet being over populated. How about all cell phones can't receive or send text messages when it senses you are going 10 mph or faster? NAH!!! lets shoot the bastards!

Ever watch "Americas/Canadas Worst Driver" show on Discovery? No coincidence the Canadian version comes on around Halloween time. Scariest shit I've ever seen in my life................and I work the ER(sometimes)!

 

BTW some of the best, well behaved drivers I've ever encountered where near Colville Washington.

Was slowing down to make a right hand turn ridin the Chief, turn signal on well in advance of the turn,

when all I can hear are squalling tires from the bastard in the cage behind me; made it with his bumper off

my rear fender by inches, looked over my shoulder to see that driver was texting and, steering with his elboes..

 

Too close for comfort..

Too risky these days. You'll either have the fuzz after you for assault/road rage or the other guy will "take it to the next level" again and pull a gun. Ain't worth it.

Riding down from Miami to the Keys, 5 bikes with normal spacing. SUV swerves from pulling in the middle of the pack, and it was like in the movies. Yanked steering wheel to the right and the 2 right wheels come off the ground smokes when they hit and keep on going. Come up to HER couple of seconds after to give Her a salute and she is busy TEXting ( Wish i had a gun )

 

Let all electronic devises unusealbe when ignition is turned on. At ten miles an hour you would have stupid shits going 10 MPH just to hear what their friend is doing or where to meet up at. GOM :banghead:

I was approaching a stop sign at a 3-way stop intersection and I see ahead of me a line of cars that had to be a minimum of 20 deep coming down the hill, what caught my eye was the first car at the head of the pack was still 100 feet from the sign. I look and the idiot was texting with his hands on top of the steering wheel so all you could see was the steering wheel and hands holding a cell phone, it was text book perfect for the anti texting poster picture but stupid me had my phone put away like it should be and I didn't have access to it. :no:

F'n zombies are like the texting dead under some voodooo trance.

 

Ridin' in the rain, heavy traffic had three in a row try to cut the Chief in half with 'eyes free lane changes'.

 

Rush hour headed home is the worst time to encounter hordes of these mindless mutts.

 

Don't let 'em getcha!

Let Ted Nugent design it. If you open your phone while moving it blows your head off . Kinda like capital punishment, it would thin the herd out and maybe these stupid people would learn. It's a law in Illinois and i can't count how many still do it cause they can't wait to find out what is going on. I didn't see him is a cop out.

In me work car on the way home yesterday naturally traffic was bumper to bumper coming into Bastrop going 5-10 mph I was in the right lane some distance open up behind me and I see this car in the left lane whip over there no blinker and then I see they were on the brakes slowing down behind me it was a young fimale she would be right on my rear bumper then she would drop back a ways then here she comes again slowing down I watched her doing this a few times traffic is moving slow then boom she bump me in the back. We pull over on the shoulder she gets out saying how sorry she is over and over I tell her lady you best put your flashers on before some dumb ass hits you in the back. She had her windows down and said a bee flew in got on her face and she step on accelerator pedal. She must of been scared of bees cause there were some flying around when I was getting her insurance information. Did not do anything to her mothers car but bolts that hold license plate on one of them put a hole in my rear bumper cover. Young inexperience fimale driver. I could kick me ass for not driving me truck that day I leave my 10" drop hitch in the bumper. I have been bumped a few times in the rear with this but they get the worse of it when they do. It usually puts a could v in there front bumper and one time it got this dump ass fellow that was on cell phone hit his radiator :ooh2: he learned the hard way to stay off them damn cell phones. I wish they would pass law in Texas no talking on cell phones when you are driving they could really generate some money.

The exploding phone would really suck for the passengers...

 

Not if the passenger grabbed the phone & tossed it out the window...
