Mobiles whilst driving

It's mainly blokes I see using mobiles whilst they are driving. What confused me is it's a fact that blokes can't 'mulit-task' so how do they manage it? Any bloke you see using a mobile whilst driving must be a big girls blouse. Why do they need to talk on a phone anyhow? My phone conversations last 3 seconds and that's only if I have to make them!!! Bunch of woofters!!!

More annoyinglingy I had a bloke on the train last night sitting in the seat behind me yakking the whole journey, but leaning forward for some reason. It was as though he was talking in my ear the whole journey.

I can tell you that;

- His girfriend has some strange brain illness that affects her balance
- He cannot decide which formation to play in football at the weekend
- He puts on a tough man voice to his mates on the phone and sounds like a geezer, but goes all lovey dovey when on the phone to his bird.

Sounds like Chrisd_b? It was american football wasn't it?

I can't answer my mobile when I'm driving - I can't talk on any phone and sit still...

if I answer a phone at home it does my wife's head in when I start wondering aimlessly round the house

Hmmm..
Nearly tw*tted-off the Salisbury bypass last weekend by a (male) Disco driver , I glared up towards him when alongside , mobile to his ear , glazed expression...maybe the friendly blast of the horn & merry handshake/wave (copyright , Gareth Hunt , Nescafe commercial) alerted him to his slight oversight , maybe not...

My wife and lad also do that (also my wifes brother I've noticed). Freaks me out. I'ver tried to make them sit still but they physically can't do it....freaks

I'd never do it and never will. I always pull over if someone rings me while driving or if I have to ring someone.

I never answer the phone while driving, and never stop to answer the phone either.
I always wait until I got to where I was going then see who it was... Even then, I don't always ring them back.

I wear a bluetooth and am always on the phone while driving but if i have to make a call i do pick my phone upto dial. I do come across alot of people on the roads who think if they go 10 or 20 mph slower its ok to be on the phone which i think is far more dangerous. Unfortunately i am in the bad habit of texting while driving. I no this is a contradiction and its a stupid thing to do but i dont do it too often. I do have better visibility being higher up but its no excuse i no so dont start!

Best off putting your phone out of reach to stop the temptation to text if you have a bluetooth thing. We are all guilty of stupidities at the wheel. The last person I heard that killed someone whilst texting is inside now for a fair while

I was following a girl home tonight who was weaving about and slowing down and speeding up again, I got a gimpse in her rear view mirror and it was obvious she had her mobile in her lap and was texting someone.

Felt like getting out and slapping the *****

- His gf's brain is cooked talking to him on the bleeding phone all the time.
- He can't even make a decision about his leisuretime because his brain is cooked talking to his gf all the time.
- Talking to his gf on the phone all the time has cooked the part of his brain that regulates production of testosterone.

HAhahaha, very good

Its a serious problem and the punishments are going to get more drastic. They were on about changing it to 6 points if your caught and if you have a accident i wouldn't like to say. I heard that not wearing a seatbelt gets you 3 points now and i never ever wear it.

Have you noticed that the people you do see on mobiles are driving anything from around £40k upwards. Stupid gits can't afford £20 for an earpiece coz they're up to their oxters in car repayments obviously.
