I was gobsmacked today when I glanced over at the car cruising past me doing at least 75 mph (I was traveling at 70 mph), and saw the 20'ish girl putting on eyeliner!

I have trouble putting that stuff on standing still infront of a mirror glued to the bathroom wall!

What next ...

Looking into cars (and other trucks) from the cab of my truck, I have seen just about every activity you could imagine... Besides the usual makeup application, I've seen tooth-brushing AND flossing. Reading books and newspapers (one at night with the dome light on) Passed a truck driver on I-70 in Eastern Indiana that had his lap top on the steering wheel watching a video! There's also the usual X-rated stuff not suitable for a nice forum like this... (I occasionally get blinded by women's headlights...)

Default I always seem to see the same thing.....huh

picking their noses.......and some looking or eating it....yuck....it's SO disgusting to see that!
Why can't they do that at their homes?
People, there ARE glass windows in the car, and NO, you are NOT invisible......WE ALL SEE WHAT YOU ARE DOING!

A few weeks ago I passed a truck on the motorway which was weaving all over his lane (and a lot of mine too) and when I looked up to see what he was doing he had a road map on the steering wheel. And I don't mean he was just taking quick glances at it (which would have been dangerous enough), his head was buried in it and he was following his route with his finger!

In this day and age, this is not all that amazing, but I walk 4 blocks to work and I see that 99% of the cars that pass me is talking on the cell.
