I think I have now, officially, seen it all!
I was just driving a few minutes ago when I looked over to the car next to me and the driver was watching a DVD while driving.

UM, d00d, I don't think one is supposed to multitask whilst driving.

2. Was it on a built-in player?
Why are those things even legal in the front seat? :shrug:

4. Yes it was!
They could not have installed one in the back seat - since there was no back seat.

I am getting visions of that guy wrapping his exorbitantly expensive roadster around a telephone pole.

5. One can only hope
:evilgrin:

Seriously — I don't understand why it's legal for auto manufacturers to install those. It's like, "Driving is boring. Here's something to stare at other than the road." :shrug:

7. Yes, me too!
I was absolutely dumbfounded. I walked into the house and told my husband about it and he kind of chuckled and said, "Welcome to SoCal".

:wtf:

8. I've seen it
I've seen people reading a newspaper while driving.

To me, THOSE ought to be automatic lose-your-license offenses. It's just so DELIBERATELY dangerous.

9. I totally agree!
Nothing like taking your own and hundreds of others' lives into your own hands.

12. People like that shouldn't be allowed on the road
Only the other day there was some jerkoff who cause me to swerve; I spilled my coffee all over my emails.
