How the hell does anyone text and drive these days!? I have a hard enough time trying to use touchscreens while sitting still doing nothing else at all!! These people clearly have decent dexterity and multitasking skills.
Saw someone without any of those skills yesterday, wasn't even on the phone... He was parked half on the path, due to other peds I was forced to walk near him...he started reversing at speed without even checking mirrors! I had to jump out of the way while ffs. Then he pulled off forward at similar speed straight into the path of a new Fiesta that was driving past...Fiesta had to jump on the brakes (and horn ), and the van driver was still completely oblivious...fecking idiot!
