Mobile users drive poorly hands free or not

I am starting to really dislike(okay hate) people who drive their car and talk on the cell phone at the same time. Because 90% can't do it right at the same time. I know you all are thinking that you are in that 10% who can do both well, but I am sure majority of you can't also. Just Friday I had to honk at a total A-hole who was on the cell and merging into my lane(or should I say into my car) doing 35-40 on the freeway where the speed limit was 65. And when I honked at him he moved the phone to his other had and took out his left hand and flipped me the bird. A-hole.

 

here is some proof from a research that was done for all you.

Drivers who use a cell phones behind the wheel, even with a "hands-free" device, suffer from a kind of tunnel vision that endangers themselves and others, researchers say.

I know exactly what you mean Azat! I can easily tell who's on a cell phone based on the fact that they are going 20MPH slower than everyone else, in the FAST LANE

 

Well, either that or it's an asian women behind the wheel. Call me racist, call me sexist ... this is based on PURE scientific observation and statistical validation. I'm sorry, but even my grandma drives faster than most asian women I see. But at least my grandma is wise enough never to get on the freeway.
