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.

We used to have them then the effing city took them down because some stupid reason.

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.

      Moton extension. 2 more years, $44M

      By Loyalty4Life · Posted

      In your opinion. What do you think Moton's true value in contract, dollars and guarantees? If we had not extended him, what is your plan for RT in 27 and 28? How important are good offensive linemen for our current offense? How much value do you put on protecting Bryce at this stage of his career? How difficult in general do you think finding above average tackles in the NFL is?

      Falcons with Major Offensive Line Injuries to Start the Season

      By Seltzer · Posted

      The Falcons have 2 significant offensive line injuries to start the 2025 season. Right tackle Kaleb Mcgary (who is the blindside protector for Penix since he is left-handed) is going to miss significant time, and it's looking more like it may be all season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-expect-kaleb-mcgary-to-miss-significant-time https://x.com/BKsquared7/status/1959285822236107013. Also, the top backup and swing tackle, Storm Norton (cool name BTW) is having ankle surgery and may miss half the season. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/falcons-ot-storm-norton-out-6-8-weeks-after-ankle-surgery I don't root for injuries, but its also hard to be too sympathetic given how badly injuries have hit us in recent years. We definitely need to get that W in week 3 for our home opener at BOA. Despite our collective frustration at not being able to attend TC and then having boring preseason games, ultimately the most important objective of the preseason is to enter Week1 healthy, and we have at least done that. Hopefully the depth we think we have at Oline either shines through or isn't needed. Many other teams are in a bad spot with their offensive lines before the season even starts. For once, we aren't in that situation.

      Josina Anderson: Panthers NOT trading Adam Thielen

      By CRA · Posted

      That roster was billed as a super smart and strong unit for a young QB….until he sucked though.   it didn’t have superstars but it had proven vets that checked well all the safe boxes and it was universally agreed the Panthers were putting him into position to succeed. BY just doesn’t fit a traditional O because he isn’t built like a traditional QB.  And he still doesn’t.   CJ Stroud would have had more success here than Bryce with that cast.   CJ just has the tools that fit the NFL more easily.  Young can find success but I have always argued it would take a Bryce centric plan (which we have never attempted IMO)
