This guy was fortunate.  Pretty crazy to catch it on camera.   Be careful out there.

No, she said "I didn't see you" as she slid the cell phone in her pocket.......in the middle of her texting.

That guy is extremly lucky.  If he didn't think he had angels, he better look again.   I've had two friends killed (seperate incidents, years apart) sitting at red lights but it's been a lot of years since it's happened to anybody that I know.

That's exactly what the b-tch said who hit us on the Ohio Turnpike last October and it did hurt like hell the next day(s). Thanks again for checking out the bike for me.  Doc

I guess this pretty much answers the question "should cell phones and texting while driving be a nationwide crime?"...

You can see the woman slipping something in her left pocket as she approaches the rider, who is gripping his right knee.

talk about angles riding with you...

That finally became illegal here in Ontario.

I cannot tell the difference between someone who is driving impaired and someone who is texting while driving... this is a very significant statement.

Frequently I will stop a texter assuming they are drunk.... and I have been involved with hundreds of people who blow over 80 mgs.

Very interesting observation.  And how many more people will have to be crippled or killed by drivers using phones before our new mobile phone addiction is curbed?  Distracted drivers now out-weigh my fear of deer on the roads while riding.  :nervous: spyder
