2 days old and almost wrecked

That won't fix the problem.

People will still be paying more attention to their phone conversations than the road. Again, the problem isn't just that someone's holding a plastic device in their hands. It's that they're more engaged in a convo than driving.

So we have the people who wear the bluetooth everywhere: church,work,golf,walking around. Then we have morons who don't have one that need one. Is there no happy medium??!!
Also not sure about your area scone, but in some places its a secondary offense so the police can't stop you unless there is another motive. Kind of like the seatbelt law in va until it was changed to a stoppable offense.

Onzege, the more people I meet and come in contact with the more I learn that I hate people. This lady is proof to why I feel that way.

It's not a primary in MD either. You have to be speeding, swerving, or something else, and then they can ticket you for a secondary offense.

yep, i feel the same. i went to the DMV a few days ago to pickup my new tags for my plates and i saw so many stupid people asking stupid questions to the clerks i almost made me angry. gotta give to those folks that work retail for sure.

shadoquad

It's the same reason that I'm always nice and patient to system admins and helpdesk personnel. I can only imagine the stupidity they deal with every day.

I love DMV. It is a source of amusement every time I go. I love the people who try to register their friend's cousin's uncle's brother-in-law's car that was "given" to them and they have no paperwork.

In Ontario, its enough to be pulled over and fined. People actually take it pretty seriously here.

The DMV is a cesspool of the most worthless, stuid people at no specific time. Stupid people are out and about at all hours. May God shine down and bless DMV employees.

I also have a kind demeanor for call/helpdesks or any type of public servie jobs. They put up with soo much ignorance and stupidity. I wonder if it is like farming tobacco, after doing it for a bit the nicotine seeps in your hands and you become addicted. Can you catch stupid by being around it all day everyday?

There was a time when the light turned green and I was at the front middle lane. I saw a car going awfully a little too fast and may look like a hard stop.

So I waited thinking he might just gun it (like everyone else in California). The SUV behind me beeped and I didn't care cuz the speed I saw seemed too fast. Well, the car on the left of me seemed to jump the gun because of that same beep and got T-boned hard.

I got out of the car and tell that SUV (which ended being a woman in her 40s) owner "Look what you did! I saw her in my small car and you just killed a guy." She cried, but I don't have any heart for her because I'm an a***.

You are an ***. The only one responsible is the red light runner. The SUV lady didn't do anything wrong and certainly didn't "kill a guy". Don't be an idiot.

I know, but I was also in shock that it if it weren't for my experiences on the road, that honk would've prone me to drive and get t-boned as well. I usually count about 4 alligators before honking the person in front because they usually have better point of view than me as to what's going on. That, alone, really did help a good 30% of the time because some guy at the intersection either hit a red light or just brake really darn hard and would've gunned the red light.

Same thing here happened to me. Was making a left turn on a green arrow when a lady in a truck T-boned me. She had the guts to say I ran the red light on the police report. I found two witnesses and sued her ***. Milked her for every dollar I could. Biatch!.

Hmm looking on the positive side perhaps if she would have hit me and I lived, I would have been able to grab a GTR with the damages and lawsuit!
