They are too busy talking on their cell phones! Between text messaging and reading the paper there's not much time to apply face powder and lipstick to say nothing of driving the car. No signal lights, no caution, no courtesies, no driving skills, They're on the phone and just aiming their vehicles. Does this scare the hell out of you too?

I know alot of states have started banning cell phones while your driving. I think they should. Ppl are so busy reading their email, texting and talking that they don't pay attention to the road like they should. **AT PEACE WITHIN** ~~STAND STRONG IN YOUR BELIEFS~~

This is quite fightening and the one thing that peeves me off more is they say to pull over so you can answer your call instead of while you are driving.......well then great idea, NOT, especially for those who decide to make a quick pull over and somehow forget to indicate so this can also cause a disaster and this has happened to me on the open Highway a few times. Feel like pulling over myself and giving them a "mouthfull" but these days not a wise idea! I was recently behind someone who kept taking their eyes off the and looking down to the side of them they almost ran off the side of the road a few times and when I was finally able to pass them noticed they were using there mobile probably to send someone a message, hence felt like giving them a "mouthfull" too! lol

Yes it really does scare me. These people are an accident waiting to happen. They seem to think they are perfect drivers and above having an accident or hitting some innocent person. These people are no better than people that drink and drive, as they create horrible accidents as well.

There will eventually be a law against it. In the meantime more people will get killed and injured.

That is just so annoying and dangerous to say the least.... I have come across a lot of drivers on the roads when I am driving to work, on their phones, driving recklessly. How they dont get themselves or anyone else killed is beyond me!!!! Here if the police see a driver on their phone while driving they are stopped and fined.

Humans are not like computers, we can do only one thing at a time, if we are to do it well!
