Will get your ass dead…

Kudos to Volkswagen for the innovative way of getting that message across…

PLEASE- Don’t text and drive.  The person you might kill are both you and I.

  1. My son and I were almost hit by a car (twice) in a crosswalk by someone on a cell phone who blew through the stop sign because they weren’t paying attention. And don’t even get me started on people who text and drive – morons who put their lives and the lives of others in danger because they have to type “LOL” to their dumbass friend’s text. Don’t talk, text, apply mascara, eat moo goo gai pan, or any of the other crazy stunts I’ve seen people do while behind the wheel. *leaps off of soapbox*

  3. It’s called ‘distracted driving’. There’s too much tolerance for poor driving in the United States, and it doesn’t have to be this way.

  6. Yep,I’ve seen an idiot texting using both hands while entering a highway using his knees to steer.

    I was run off the road by a texting idiot once narrowly avoiding a collisison, so I fully agree that drivers need to quit distracting themselves and pay attention.

  9. Wow! Excellent!

    I skimmed a report recently saying that such and such county in WV was the worst in the state for texting while driving. All I could think of was “IT’S A STATE FULL OF WINDING ROADS THROUGH MOUNTAINS WHY ARE YOU TEXTING?!”

  10. yup! Too many innocent folks getting killed or in serious accidents because of people and their need for social networking and etc….

  11. Back in April, I made a quick trip to Oklahoma from Abq. I pulled off in OKC to get fuel. As I was getting back on I-40 E, I had to stop for a signal on the frontage road/onramp. So, I’m sitting there minding my own business waiting for the green light BAM. I look in my mirror and all I see is Peterbuilt grill, and I’m pulling a 20′ car hauler (empty). The guy was on his phone. He gets out and says ” You’re not gonna report this are you? I could loose my licence”, as I’m reaching in my pocket for my phone. The cops wrote him up.

  12. Aaron- I almost got nailed this morning… sigh

    Buck/WSF/Euripides- Agreed!

    PH- Yep!

    JUGM- Agreed!

    Craig- Good! Sorry to hear you got tapped though…
