A few weeks ago, I noticed a woman texting at a red light in the next laneover. Light turns green, she doesn't move as I'm pulling away so I lay on the horn (no one was in front of me). I can see her looking up, around, behind her before she starts driving. She didn't realize it was me who honked.

I don't speed, so we both hit the next red light together. Same thing, she's STILL texting, so I honk AGAIN as I pull away. Same confused look, no clue why she's getting honked at.

Same story at the NEXT red light. The woman was just not getting the hint!

DON'T FUCKING TEXT AND DRIVE!

Why are headphones worse? nt Logical Apr 2014 #14

Probably because they mask out background noises The Straight Story Apr 2014 #15

To be honest, earphones may block out less background noise than a standard stereo system. Gravitycollapse Apr 2014 #16
