just last night on my way home...sitting at a traffic light... I'm 4 or 5 cars back from the light...I notice the car that should be next to me back about 10'.. SLOWLY creeping up.. I look over.. she has the phone on the steering wheel eyes trained on it.. tottaly unaware of her car creeping foreward... I'd like to tell you how it ended but when the light turned green my entire lane emptied... everyone in front of her went as well.... as I exited the intersection, a glance in my side mirror as i changed lanes told me she was still sitting there at the green light....tottaly unaware that the world was passing her bye...
it doesn't take much on the road to cause an Oh $#!+ moment... I'm sure everyone has had them..I know I have.. just in a brief second while hitting a pre select on the radio when I THOUGHT i had ample room/time... luckily.. I've never suffered anything more than an accelerated heart rate... it surley helps one focus afterwards... there are alot of distractions out there.. cell phones are not the only one.. they just seem to be the one most visable right now... hell.. a tube top and mini skirt caused me to dump my bike many years ago and I was I WAS STOPPED...
