Some studies say distracted driving is age dependent and I think I heard somewhere else some are just better at multitasking safely, though I don't remember the signs or how to test for this -awesome- traight.

- chadgeidel 15y agoThat certainly may be true. I'm merely of the opinion that driving warrants all my attention - no matter the traffic conditions. Full disclosure: I do listen to music/podcasts on long trips, so you may consider that I'm breaking my own rule.
- K2h 15y agoOff topic completely now. Sorry all.. My post was in defense of distracted driving to give a balanced perspective with some scientific data.. However, I'm as annoyed with distracted driving as ou. I play a small game when driving.. Spot the person on the phone, watch the person next to you at the light and can tell with the head nod to lap that they are texting, especially If under 30. Sorry for the stereotype. We need some legal paintball guns so we can use on the freeway to tag offenders so those of us that are driving can know where the risks are... And it would be a chance to practice my aim. If more than a few hundred tags, we can then switch to harpoons and the cars will start to look like porcupines.
