No....Shit about time

[sno_duc]

While I've personaly witnessed some stupid $hit by  [moto]'s, it pales compared to some of the multi-tasking dolts you see every day.  [moto] pretty much forces you to focus on the task at hand.

Unfortunately, we can't criminalize stupid so we seek to punish symptoms.

How would you prove the level of impairment? I think I could walk ten paces in a straight line and talk on the phone at the same time. Whatabout all the people so stupid that they can't drive well even when that is all they are doing? Can I arrest them too?

but I can do that drunk





Cell phone records

if the record shows you had activity during the stop = impaired/distracted





on a personal level I feel that cell phones are no more a distraction than any other gadget in a vehicle

be it the moon roof controls or changing radio stations

but

I am comfortable multitasking whilst driving

others are not

so

the question is how does one blanket subjectivity?

[Kopfjäger]

Everyone on the road thinks everyone else can't drive.

good thing for me it only matters to me what i think

I'm gonna go off a bit here, so for those that don't want to hear it, don't make the beast with two backsing read it.

This world has become a pussy whipped version of what I've read it used to be.  Think back, way back, to the western days.  Did people rob others?  You bet.  When they got caught and shot down in the street, did anyone give a shit, no.
Now we are making laws to ban shit people shouldn't be doing ANYWAY.  make the beast with two backs, what is worse, some dumb pregnant dog texting, or some fat bastard trying to eat a triple bacon heart attack burger while driving a smart car?

There is no more natural selection, because we as a society feel like laws should protect and govern the way idiots want to live.

If you ass is dumb enough to make the beast with two backsing play with a hair dryer while taking a bath....NO warning label for you, you SHOULD die.  Less idiots would mean a lot less burden on those that arn't complete dumbasses, and hence we wouldn't need a stupid no-texting while driving law. 

-End rant.

get off my lawn zipperhead

[Kopfjäger]

So, your saying the dumbasses would kill themselves off drying their hair in the tub, and we wouldn't have to worry about them texting on the highway?  

[GAAN]

ooh we could have a free hairdryer giveaway at all bath and bodyworks locations

The flaw in your logis is the idiot most likely runs into innocent non-idiot. If you could guarantee 100% idiot v idiot collisions, I'm all for it.

exactly! and if such collisions could be guaranteed, we could charge admission to watch.

[Holden]

Easiest way to guarantee that is to make us all idiots.

Idiocracy!!!  Great Movie!

Which reminds me, I have to get that back from someone.

Oh, and it's on Comedy Central this weekend.

Isn't being an idiot kind of subjective?  We all look pretty dumb to Steven Hawking.
