"I almost got killed the other day by this lady driving down the highway with cell phone in one hand and make-up brush in the other......in the fast lane going, like, 45 mph! I need a crabby Abby response to that!"
Dear Misty,
I feel your pain. I was once almost run down by a crazy woman in a giant Hummer who had drifted over into my lane on a two lane road. I had to swerve off the road to avoid her, and I had the kids with me! Afterward, I had to check my pants...
Too often people are trying to multitask in the car, instead of focusing on the safety of themselves and those around them. When I see women applying makeup while driving, it really irritates me. I'm perfectly capable of having a phone conversation while driving, but I try not to. I can not even imagine someone talking on the phone AND putting on makeup at the same time, while they're supposed to be driving!
How stupid are people these days? I've even seen people talking on their cell phone and holding a cigarette with the other hand, "holding" the steering wheel with their knee! OH MY GOD! You're gonna kill somebody doing that!
Wake up people! Quit being so ignorant! It is never a good idea to spread your focus too thin while piloting a giant contraption of death. Pay attention to the road, pay attention to the other idiot drivers around you, and for cripe's sake, USE YOUR BRAIN!
