If you are one of those people that think it alright to drive and text, put on make up, blog, take videos / pictures or do anything other thing that distracts you from driving then I, along side millions of other bikers, don't like you. At least while you are in the car.
Distracted driving kills more people per year then drunk drivers. Many states have passed laws against cell phone usage while operating motor vehicles.
Riding in this day in age is a world of difference then say 10 years ago. Technology on the go has became a problem and if you are one of those people I am referring to then you are part of the problem. There is no excuse at all. You are not that good of a driver .
Why am I ranting about this? Most will think that it's because dumb **** drivers try to take me out daily on the bike and in part you are correct. The main reason is because over a year ago my woman was rear ended in her friends car by someone that thought it was acceptable to text and drive.
For over a year I have had to deal with my woman be in constant pain due to back injuries caused by the wreck and mental anguish caused by the pending law suit because the insurance of the other driver doesn't want to pay out.
Am I alone in this thought process? If you were one of those people that drove distracted and now dont; what changed for you?
Disagree with anything I have ranted by all means defend your self amd your actions. Just know somewhere in what ever country you are in a mother, brother, father, sister, son or daughter will not be coming home to their family due to people that thought they were good enough to drive while distracted.
