Texting while driving conviction

good thing I don’t drink at all. Lol. But yea, you’re really really good at remembering people.

 

That is actually quite believable.

 

I was going to a job interview and had no idea where I was going. Did not have a phone mount and was using phone as gps. Was holding it. Cop saw me holding it. It was pretty egregious and actually really sucks since I very very rarely use a phone at all while driving and do not use it at all since then.

 

One thing I can honestly say for certain: I would never ever use a cell phone driving a truck. I don’t actually use a phone driving a car normally- it was being used as a gps as I was trying to find a job interview. Stupid mistake but really I don’t use a phone while driving - not even hands free phone normally so that was not characteristic of me whatsoever. The error was just particularly egregious as I was holding the phone and cop saw me doing that. Trucks are like gigantic missiles - cars are dangerous too of course but trucks are like missiles. They are like wonders of the world tbh and the catastrophic damage that could be done in a truck and the safety of everyone involved … there is no way I would ever operate a cmv using a cell phone. I can understand why the guy got fired. Not saying what I did was good at all but I really can’t imagine using a phone driving a cmv unless you wanted to die or kill other people. Can certainly happen in a car too of course… but trucks are … just next level I think.
