Don't Text When You Are Driving / myLot

Every time I ride public utility vehicle van, most of the drivers are careless in their driving because they are texting while driving and some are calling to their mobile phone. With the law about to be pass, the Anti-Distracted Law which prohibit drivers of all kinds of vehicles to text and call while driving, this surely help the passengers to have a peace of mind while riding the PUV. But hope is that there must be strict implementation of the law because it will be useless if its toothless.

I get really annoyed when I see people on their phones while driving! Not only are they putting themselves in danger, but they are being selfish enough putting others in danger.

That's the downside for the law enforcers in our country.

It seems the general public will have to inform the authorities that the law is not being followed. Even now the drivers should not be texting while driving the public around to various places.

@ilocosboy Reminding some people does no good because they don't think the rules apply to them.

I hope this law will be pass. It's very annoying when some drivers you are riding when we commute, they are calling or texting someone, when I see this kind of drivers I'm going to call their attention to stop calling or texting because I still love my life.

that's the right thing to do, to call the attention of the driver
