Texting--we all do it. Driving--a lot of us do it. Texting while driving--CRAZY *bleep*ING MORONS DO IT.

Alright, so I'm in the car with my buddy Kyle going to his house. It's about 11pm, and to get to his house we have to take the old freeway. So we're going about 65mph when HE TAKES OUT HIS DAMN CELLPHONE AND BEGINS TO TEXT BEHIND THE WHEEL. AT NIGHT. WHILE GOING *bleep*ING HIGHWAY SPEED LIMITS.

Oh, because NOTHING is more important than that damn text, so if we hit a couple of kids, plow into a deer, NO BIG DEAL RIGHT? ONLY THE COOLEST TEXT AND DRIVE AT THE SAME TIME. Hey, I think I will bring a book to read while driving, or hey, I GOT A BETTER IDEA--LET'S BLINDFOLD OURSELVES. LET'S WEAR OUR SUNGLASSES WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. LET'S DRIVE WITH OUR FEET WHILE WE'RE AT IT.

If the previous paragraphs are incomprehensible due to my rage rambling, I just want you guys to know things like this cause accidents all the time, and it's basically a "leave your common sense at the door" type of thing. If you have a friend, parent, grandparent, or pet that does this, beg them to stop. They're risking the safety of everyone in the vehicle, and it's going to look pretty stupid and irresponsible to the cops if they pull you over, and people will laugh at your funeral if you get killed.

Thank you.

What people are probably going to say in this thread:

You sound like a police officer.

You're not my mom.

Shut up.

Aren't you supposed to be gone?

My answers to these questions:

YES. I DO. BUT DO IT ANYWAY.
YES I AM.
DON'T TALK TO YOUR MOTHER IN THAT TONE.
DON'T YOU HAVE MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO WORRY ABOUT?

My *bleep*ing dog does this shit. Time for an intervention.

Why is my mother on Neo?

I still text and drive but not as much like i used to do anymore since i just call the person instead.

INTERVENTION! INTERVENTION! [/always sunny]


Shit, I'm troubled enough to talk on the phone while driving, let alone text. But you know, some people just take their liberties and do things... like, they push their chances. For example, both my best friend and my other friend's dad sometimes drive with their knees, while eating McDonalds or whatever else. I won't lie, that's something I'll aspire to do when I'll drive more often haha.

But indeed, they probably shouldn't do it with other people in the car. Let themselves *bleep* 'emselves up if they wish to, plus they'll just look like douches.

I do it most times I'm in the car, but I can text one handed without looking - so my eyes are on the road and I have a hand on the wheel still.

Yeah I don't do shit like this. No one I know who drives even answers their phone, we all just pass it to whoever's shotgun.

Makes me want to shout a little when I see people (usually taxi drivers) with a phone in one hand and a fag in the other. They're bad enough drivers.

Almost as bad as women.

I've done that. It's great fun. Or stick both arms out of the window to try to create enough drag to make the car change lanes.

But yah, somepeople go overboard with the whole texing while driving thing. That seems really sketchy to me.

Shut up.

My good sir, I salute you!
