Listen lady! It is a busy intersection, and you need to get off the phone. There are stop signs each direction. The car that I let go ahead of mee, had the right-of-way. Then it was my turn, so I started. You, however, were not paying attention to the intersection. And would have plowed right into the side of mee if I had not been aware of you going and you not watching. I braked, and stopped in time for you to not hit mee, and when I put my hand in the air (whole hand, not displaying any particular part of my hand, lest anyone think I was making a rude gesture) as if to ask why you went out of turn. You just shrugged your shoulders, still holding the phone to your ears, as if to answer “whatever” and that it really doesn’t matter because you are allowed to drive irresponsibly.
If you are driving, just pay attention to the road. If you really need to talk to someone, pull over. If you think you need to keep talking to someone while driving, make sure you can keep your eyes on the road, and hands on the wheel. The phones do come equipped with speakerphone after all.
My phone doesn’t have speakerphone ;(
But I also don’t usually have it plastered to my ear when driving, that is what the copilot is for. Also I find situations like these the opportune time to use my horn, and I have found that laying it on is the best method, five second bursts at the minimum. Glad you are okay, people are scary.
Good advice. I’m glad you were watching and you and Copyright are safe.
