There I was leaving the parking lot of an Wendy's when I see a early 20's female driving and texting! here eyes weren't even on the road! her arms were on the wheels while her hands were facing the window with her phone, then to top it off she was in a van with at least 3 KIDS! It made me pissed.

They should have those stoplight cameras catch people in the act and fine them $100 for the first offense, $200 for the second, etc.

Some stupid bitch about ran into me today doing that. She got up ahead of me and someone else zipped around her, obviously frustrated, and when I passed her she was throwing up her hands at the other driver. Drag them out of the car and beat them senseless. It's the only way texter/drivers will learn.

What about at a stop sign or stop light?

If I'm in a rural area ill just sit a stop sign for a while unless somebody pulls up behind me

Well that's okay, you are at a stand still in and area where traffic isn't heavy.

As long as you aren't at a busy intersection. Can't tell you how many stoplights I've had to sit through because some jackass couldn't be bothered to look up.

<---- readz teh huddlez while driving

Same. If I want to text while im driving I can do it without looking ...and most people who have smartphones now can set it.up so you can speak your text messages. U don't need to be typing or even looking at it if you have a car dock.

Charlotte had the red light cameras and.I know they got rid.of.it bc.it was too expensive.

I do not need to be entertained every second of my life. I rarely even talk on the phone while driving, usually only when I'm expecting an important call and even then I'll usually pull off.

There was a young girl texting while driving on the highway behind our house the week before last, she ran off the road and hit our neighbors culvert. I didn't see it happen but I was outside at the time and I heard it. It sounded like she hit a brick wall. She was pretty shaken up but was ok, she was lucky.

      Thomas Fletcher Didn’t Make It, But These Four Did

      Seriously? A CB who missed all that time on his rookie deal and was also a top 10 pick when the guys picked right before and after have been studs. A RB our GMs tried to replace with FAs and 2nd rounders and two backup level players is one of the best drafts we’ve ever had? I’d argue that the 2011/2012 drafts were better even with just Cam and Luke/Norman. Here’s the drafts I think were better: 2017, maybe 2018, 2015, 2013, 2011, 2012, 2008, 2007, 2001, 2002 (just Pepp) I’m hoping 2025 is way better as well. Honestly, we’ve kind of sucked at drafting overall and that’s the only reason you can even remotely call Horn, Hubbard, Tremble and BC a good draft let alone one of our best ever. Good teams that draft well would laugh at that as a great draft. If you want to look at say the 2023 Lions draft, you’d get 4 stud/above average/average starters not just 3 replaceable starters/backups and a top 10 pick that missed half his games. That’s a draft that helps turn a team into a playoff team. Our record since our 2021 draft is 19-49. A best ever draft doesn’t go 19-49.

      Bingo. You can't pay that type of player elite franchise QB money. That average starter type player can excel when he's surrounded by top shelf talent in a great offensive system but pay him elite QB money and you're going to really struggle to surround him with the type of talent you need to carry him. You pay those elite franchise QBs because they can carry your roster. You can't pay guys who have to be carried. Bryce showed glimpses down the stretch last year. I really hope he keeps building on that. But before we back up the Brinks truck he needs to show that he's the type of QB who can lift up and carry the offense because when you pay those guys that's what they're gonna have to do.
