Peeve of the day-June 19,2010 (driver, house, how many, cell phones)

[LaceyEx]

Idiot drivers who still text while behind the wheel.

Lacey......today is the 18th. Now no rushing your visit. LOL

This is a big peeve of mine too and really dont' understand how these idiots continue to do so.
Even talking on the cell while driving. I'm behind someone that drives irratic and when I pass I see them relaxed, laughing, talking on the cell as if they were laying on a lounge chair.
Really burns my bump.

OMG don't even get me started on this one

These are the same idiots who think THEY are the ones that can multitask while driving. Pays off tho....we watched a woman, who was obviously texting, sideswipe a very large, yellow pole in a parking lot over the weekend! Side of her van had a big yellow dent from headlight to tail light. It was SWEET!

I see I'm not the only one who mixes up the dates.

I can't even imagine how many wrecks are caused by texting!
My daughter's roommate just totaled her car doing the very same thing.
Totally slammed into the car in front of her while she was going 35 mph.

Well a woman pulled out in front of me who was............yep, texting!! Grrrrr!!!

For one brief shining moment I thought it was Saturday

I don't have to deal with people driving and texting, but driving and talking on their cell phones which can be just as bad. Now it does tick me off to be walking somewhere and have some kid who's not paying attention (b/c they're texting) run into me and almost knock me off the sidewalk. Would like to just take that cell and throw it in front of a car

Lacey, lifes' going by too fast for me now, please don't make it go any faster...

Cell phone abusers and texters in vehicles, my #1 peeve also...

[GloryB]

I don't want to knock technology....but I think the whole cell phone thing is out of hand. What happened to having personal conversations from your HOUSE? How does everyone have so much to say? There is no time for a nice hello and a smile to the people around you any longer....much less the kids who tag along while mom is talking to her friends on the cell instead of her kids.

I don't understand the texting with people all the time... Pick up the phone and call! Especially at the damn wheel of a car!! I remember hearing about the 5 cheerleaders that died from upstate NY --texting was cause of crash! So sad! I thankfully don't have the texting option.. and it adds one more thing to a cell phone bill!
