I think the main problem people in the USA have is that driving is a privilege NOT a right. We need a better driving program!

Yesterday I saw a guy driving with not one dog on his lap but two! You'd think this would be illegal! How do you drive like that? How is that safe? Why aren't the dog people up in arms about what will happen when this guy gets into an accident. Doggy pancake with the airbag!

I can't stand seeing people do other crap while driving.

When I use to have a long drive home from work I always saw some idiots reading the newspaper or a fucking novel. This pisses me off more than anything else.

I also hate seeing people with their kids not strapped in hopping around in the back seat like it's the damn carnival.

I should have gotten a pic, but I saw a 5 series on Saturday night at Freebirds with a bumper sticker that said "Hang up and DRIVE". I thought the funniest part was it being on a bimmer, as we're probably the most stereotyped owners for driving and yapping on the cell at the same time.

I've yet to see someone reading, but if I were to see that, I would make it my duty to flag that idiot down and let him/her know whats up. And its funny how my mentality's changed about people on their cell phones while driving. People used to think nothing of it. Now, when I see someone on their phone while driving (especially women) I get pissed and it actually looks really stupid and bad on their part. In Germany you can't even drive with flip flops or sandals. If you get pulled over in Germany and the officer notices your wearing flips/sandals, you will get a ticket for that. Ever wonder why cup holders where never a German car's thing, and a lot of times you hear that they engineered cup holders in their cars just for us Americans? Because they understand that driving is a serious and major task!

I feel like an idiot, or a wussy ass bitch when I just have to put the phone up to my ear to say that "I'm driving, so i'll call you back," let alone actually carry on a conversation. Idiot because its unsafe, and "wussy ass bitch" because of how ignorant, stereotypical of a BMW driver, and uncautious it looks and it is. I rarely ever use the bluetooth pairing through my iDrive though.......I hate having my music interrupted like that, and would rather just wait and call the person back later.

Same here bro.

I have friends that HAVE TO talk on the phone on the way home from work. I just don't get it. Thing is they don't get why they shouldn't. For years I've always had an attitude when people called me while driving.

My mom, thankfully, understands and knows when I'm driving I hate to be on the phone. So that's pretty cool.
