There only two times I've ever called in on another driver. One was a Werner driver in Dallas. He #### near ran me off the highway (had to cut across the granny lane onto the shoulder) because he was messing with the phone.
The other time was out in Cali on the 40 in the middle of the night. Truck ahead of me can't seem to make up his mind on fast he wants to drive. Up to 70 and as slow as 45. And swerving across both lanes and shoulder. He finally held steady in the granny lane at 50mph. As I make the pass the dude has a tablet mounted on the windshield right in front of the wheel watching porn while rubeing one out. I called CHP and he was promptly pulled over.
Texting and driving? I snitch.

Yes I know you can point your face at something and still look at the road. I was just pointing out that you can still be easily distracted. Your eyes might be looking at the road while your camera is facing the other driver. But your brain is thinking about recording and getting the shot. That can be distracting for almost anyone. Anyways I was just making an observation about the video you posted in this thread.I'm not trying to put you on blast like some of the other members on here. I'm sure some of your videos have helped countless drivers, so if you thought I was bashing you that was certainly not my intention.tinytim, MidwestResident and scottied67 Thank this.

I'm sorry but I hafta agree with @HalpinUout here. If someone on their phone or whatever is bothering/endangering me that much, I'll figure out how to handle it myself.
Sorry scotty, I've watched a couple of your videos before. That's before this thread. The two you posted in this thread makes you look like a total douchebag.
Just sayin.HalpinUout Thanks this. -
Ya and you seem really cool?
MidwestResident and scottied67 Thank this. -
Yes I get that a lot on my channel. People want to shoot the messenger, nevermind the illegal thing I filmed on multiple occasions; let's call out the guy who legally filmed the illegal activity lolMidwestResident Thanks this.

Um, are you referring to me? Because I don't care what anyone thinks I'm trying to "seem".. Just speaking my mind, calling it like I see it.
For example, maybe you missed it due to your e-love affair with Scottie, but did you notice in his "greatest hits" vid, where he is exiting while talking to his headcam, specifically when he asks several times "Did you SEE that??!?"....
Correct me if I'm mistaken, but he's a solo driver, no?
Talking to your snitchcam =douchey.
YMMVMaj. Jackhole Thanks this. -
Have you ever heard of live streaming video? It is where you have a live audience watching the person who is on camera.
-
Nope.
I'm a luddite. I'm replying to you with my stone and chisel.
So you trying to tell me that there's someone out there in internet land that just watches you streaming your daily travels? ? ? ? ?
And I thought I had no life. ..... -
Yep and the dumb ars teenager killed her sister when she lost control of the vehicle while streaming.MidwestResident and Mudguppy Thank this.
-
Let's not muddy the water here, she was holding her phone illegally while streaming and driving. She was also drunk and driving as well.
My camera is handsfree. I don't drink and drive my truck. I only live streamed once. My show is "live to tape" as it were.
