Angry Hang Up And DRIVE

OK second Rant here goes

1. Hang up and drive...Stop swerving all over the road 10 MPH slower than the posted speed limit.
2. Hang up and drive...Pull your head out of your butt and look before pulling out into traffic
3. Hang up and drive...Stop gesturing wildly while you talk in traffic you're liable to cause a road rage incident
4. Hang up and drive...the light has been green twice now...it's the skinny pedal on the right sweetheart
5. Hang up and drive...find a dang parking spot and quit blocking the fire lane/crosswalk in front of the store.
6. HANG UP AND DRIVE

What really gets me is when they are text messaging and driving.

Good to know someone has the same pet peeve as me. I've come close several times to being hit by someone using a cell phone and driving. One time I was even looking the person dead in the eyes and could tell they didn't even know I was there. My daughters know that if they get in an accident and it's determined they were on the cell phone while driving they'll lose their phones for an indeterminate time.

I'll admit to replying to emails on the road. (I know, I'm terrible) But, I never do it when other cars are nearby, in unstable traffic, or when I wouldn't feel comfortable doing something similarly distracting like changing the radio station. Most of the time I don't even have to look at the phone because I can feel the keys. I've never had a close call due to use of concentration-intensive activity with a phone. People should use common sense when doing things like that and we would all be a lot better off.
