yeah.... that is why you don't chat on the phone while driving

ur worlds r bounded without freedom
iam try to break my bounds

fk off asshole
ur just a bloody flamer ..
i dont even want to bother to reply to ur posts
but ur compiling me to do so ...
what the hell do u knw except to english huh ??
i made that JEE 2009 post
see how many questions u can answer from that
i got 180 marks from a single paper( ididnt write paper 2 so iam not eligible to claim a admission)
that paper was kinda of easy i got a better paper(jee 2005 paper)

btw, dude...your "bounds" have nothing to do with freedom, but with irresponsibility. I remember you saying you were~17 or so, just starting college?

Here you are displaying the mentality of a 12 year-old. chatting on your phone while riding your bike has nothing to do with your "repression" or "exploring your boundaries," dipshit. it has everything to do with being an irresponsible douchenozzle who frankly, probably needs to get get creamed by a bus or two before you learn that you "perspective" is what the rest of us call "ignorance by choice."

Also, this doesn't qualify as flaming. Flaming would be an unfounded attack. Based on your profound display here and in other threads, there is nothing unfounded about the type of responses your comments will most certainly engender.


like i said "fk off"
u simply have decided to prove me wrong(i knw iam wrong )
but so what huh ??
atleast i dont ruin others fun

wtf are you talking about? so what if a car does plow into you while you're texting it up on your cell, riding your bike?

Am I the one that's going to be responsible for ruining two people's fun that day?

fuck no. I'm the one telling you to not be an ignorant prick, and be responsible for once. realize the world does not consist entirely of you, and there are plenty of rules that exist not to restrain you, but to prevent you from wrecking yourself and others. Yes, it's sad that laws have to exist to inform the idiots of the world that texting or chatting on a phone is bad while driving, but then you continue to prove that the idiots still don't get it.

Again, this not flaming. I'm not ruining your life. This is merely called "life tuition." Or would you rather pay that with serious injury and court/jail time for you or someone else?

grow, the fuck, up.

u guys dont knw how to laugh when some one jokes
 
It's really simple. You can call friends while driving to shoot the breeze. My focus is still on driving. My friends think it's hilarious because I'll be mid-story, say someone cuts me off and I'll randomly start cussing, for whatever reason everyone finds it funny. Talking actually helps keep me focused, I'll randomly start bitching about redlight cameras when I start coming up on one, or something of that sort.

Don't talk about serious stuff while on the phone. Don't call your family member you haven't seen in 10 years to catch up, don't finish an argument with a friend, etc. It's not that hard, people.

It should be obvious that the problem is in fact idiots, not cellphones. It's not like airplane pilots are distracted by the traffic air controller and accidentally plow their plane into the ground. You can actually talk while doing something complicated.
 
Oh that's nothing. Once I was on Route 66 (Northern VA), in extremely heavy traffic (think about 1 car width max between all at 60 mph over all 4 lanes in my direction). So the lady in the SUV next to me decides to switch into my lane, or, more precisely, my current position. Wasn't even in her blind spot. Had to slam on the breaks and drop back, almost got rear-ended in the process. Got a good look at her as I did. She was on her cell phone and facing the opposite direction while switching (saw the back of her head). :| She noticed when she was about halfway into my lane, but it didn't do much difference at that point. I had a nice long vengeance honk.

Glad I was awake that morning. If I hadn't been paying attention dumb bitch might have killed me and God knows how many others that would have inevitably piled up behind us.

Deja vu, or have I read this story already?

I posted it in another thread a few days ago.

You mean a car merging into you on the highway has occurred before cellphones? Go away non-believer.

Did I ever say that it didn't? I'm sure people have backed into concrete poles before too. Fact is both the OPs story and mine were caused (at least in part) by stupid cell phone usage. Hence the relevance.

well holding a phone while cycling is only for practise
if u r good with that u can even drive a car and talk

Which is fine till you reverse into a pillar or you know... kill someone :roll:
 
I don't know how true it was, but I read somewhere that a good number of accidents are causes when people sneeze a few times in a row and from blinking when they sneeze they end up getting in a crash. I believe there is some truth to it. Which means we should ban sneezing while you drive.

They find it funny because you weren't cut up, the person was signalling for a good 10 seconds and you just failed to notice...

i dont care
 
Man, this is the INTERNET. If that ganesh1 guy annoys you, there's no need to rend your clothes and start moaning - just ignore him. Personally I think he sounds silly (and like his parents just let him start using the intarwebs), but c'mon, there's no need for anybody else to be an equally huge jackass, is there?
 
WHAT fk u, iam not annoying u guys are
you like make a big issue out of how i speak..
what i think , AND U EXPECT ME TO SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO It

AND DONT YOU DARE bring my parents into this
 
hmm i think texting is more dangerous... i think they should come up with something that makes texting more difficult (press one extra button) when the vehicle is moving (using gps) and if the phone is in the driver area (using some sort of sensor).
 
Handsfree-only has been a law here for years now yet I still see so many drivers with a phone held up against their ear. It's so obvious too... is it really worth that $100+ ticket? Put it on fricken speaker at least...
