Driving and Texting

[KeithD]

This is funny, however it also has a very serious message. Shame the UK government doesn't do ad campaigns like this.

It would be a great idea here.

I see folks driving whilst texting and using their phone every day. :NoNo::NoNo:

I have difficulty texting from my armchair :icon_rolleyes:

Adding on to the driving subject-a couple of things I have observed
On motorways with average speed cameras why do people slow down as they approach the camera,the other one is why do learner drivers never let you out?
Surely if they are learning the rules of the road it makes sense to encourage them as it increases use of gears,brakes etc but never once have I been let out by a learner but they expect me to be patient with them:cwm23:

I'm surprised the doctors let you out at all :Cuckoo:

I feel like going over and giving them a smack round the ear. Idiots. :mad:

Everyone is just obsessed with their stupid bloody phones.

'Social' life is also such great fun now. :icon_rolleyes:

Have you noticed that women drivers rarely, if ever let you out too ? :NoNo:

Haven't they upped the fine for texting while driving to £75?. Stupid if you ask me when in comparison a parking ticket isn't much less.

[imagine]

only £75, texting while driving should be at least in the same offence as drinking and driving, dangerous driving, it should not be tollerated with a wimpy fine

It's also +3 points. :smile:
