Typing While Driving

I ignore the Qualcomm while driving and they know it . If something is urgent they can notify me by cell phone .(and they expect me to stop to answer the phone or return a missed call ) .

 

ANYone who drives anything should have better sense than to try to key. Doesn't matter if it is a Qual Com, laptop, or texting. This is just plain ignorant and stupid.

Hell, most of the idiots on the road can't even drive and talk on a cell phone safely. Let alone texting.




Can you tell this is one of my "hot buttons?"

 

Some of them can barely handle just driving!

 

I didn't see it personally, but a rumor at the company I work for that a trainer ran off the road and rolled in a ditch. Not paying attention while typing on the Q/C showing a student what message to send.

Happened last spring...............LOL...........

Go figure..........

 

As far as qualcomms i can't stand the thing and it never fails you just get the truck up to road speed and beep the rotten thing goes off what a hassle. And I really think texting while driving is a no no.... oh man was that a speed bump or a vw

 

Most of the time I've spent equipped with a Qualcomm unit, I had a co-driver.
That was handy.

It was when he was driving that things got scary...


Can't tell ya how many times I imagined that danged *beep* in my sleep.

 

I never type while driving...



















I would have to stop the DVD I'm watching.

 

^LMFAO


I always kept it on my pass seat and would read directions to final as I drove. No difference in glancing at that or at a copy you wrote down. I don't send messages or idiotic crap like that though.


I did however see a woman I was trying to either pass or get behind (either would have worked, I needed to get over to turn) 2 months ago who was simply matching my speed no matter what I did. I finally realized the moron was typing on her laptop in the passenger seat and simply using me for a reference point out of her peripheral vision to try to stay in her lane.

A quick BLAST from the airhorn awoke her to the fact we were doing now 30 in a 70 and I needed to be where she was.
