I think that laws are at a certain degree "elastic" and texting while completely stuck in a jam is not the same as texting while you are moving. So, snitching on that it's closer to being a "vigilante" than filming drivers who are actually being dangerous to cyclists, which it's something I would totally justify and even do (the filming, I mean).
- teachrdan 5y agoIt's akin to a red light camera being used to spot drivers making an illegal right turn on a red light versus drivers who recklessly run through a red light. The latter is known to cause serious accidents, the former not so much.
- darkwater 5y agoA right turn on red light could still run over a pedestrian quite easily. Texting while in a jam will just add delay when the jam unlocks. If you keep texting after, then it's a different story (and you are moving).
- TYPE_FASTER 5y agoIt depends on the state. Using your phone while stopped is not legal in some states.
