Cycling or motorbiking? A safety line while up high? Depends how well I can hold onto things. Am I using lots of tools which need a hand or two? Heh. Of course not. Invalid assumption. It's only other people who do not perform perfectly, have accidents, and have to have society deal with the consequences. Stupid other people! Why can't they be more like you? Meanwhile back in reality... :-) You're clearly a **** driver and are making yourself feel better by claiming many others are the same. The fact remains the vast majority of people never have anything more than a minor bump in their entire life of driving. Because most sensible people with common sense don't do stupid things like texting at the wheel. Most accident occurs in a split second. It's a case of learn and live or learn and die(or maimed) Visit an emergency ward in your local hospital and look at the injured drivers coming in due to accident. Most cause is human error or negligence(like not wearing seat belt). |

Well, in the Formula 1 (and most of the rest of the car racing) world they don't consider them "silly" at all. Remember that most of what we consider quite normal or even standard now, was a "fad" once or/and came from other industries (like my car racing example). That doesn't make it a right nor sensible thing to change. The road isn't the same as a racing circuit (no matter what boy racer hoons like to think). It's not a change, at least not yet for a long time. It's just another option. They tend to be a pain in the backside when wanting to go to reverse (especially in something like a multi-point turn where you have to go backwards and forwards a number of times because you have to keep going through neutral. That is something racing drivers don't usually have to worry about doing! Same thing. Just two clicks with the paddles, instead of two movements with the gear-stick. And the gear-stick also goes through neutral. And to get somewhat back to the topic of the thread, these "flappy paddle" can make driving *safer*, because your hands can remain on the steering wheel, instead of fiddling with the gear-stick (or worse :-))! Technically it makes this less safe ... at least in the short term as the driver gets used to the new system and trying to remember which paddle goes up and which goes down. Sure it needs getting used to, but much less than for example a switch between manual and automatic, because that also involves the pedals. I wouldn't be surprised if different manufacturers / countries also have their own ideas about the "correct" way to do that as well. Don't know, but probably not. For example it's also the same for gear-sticks in left-/righhand drive countries. What's often different is the position of reverse. And of course window-wipers versus indicators. But anyway, my response was light-hearted and a way to try to get away from the texting-while-driving-is-perfectly-safe loons! |

I was in the left turn lane facing north, and the highway traffic coming off the highway heading across my path showed a police car going past me and the cop driving was talking on his cell phone. I just shook my head as I watched him drive past me. Police are allowed to break most traffic laws *IF* it's appropriate for doing their job (the obvious example being speeding and running red traffic lights when on an emergency call out). Unfortunately there are many cases of police being just as moronically stupid as the rest of the human race and using their cellphone for non-official business while driving, illegally parking so they can grab a coffee, etc. At least he wasn't texting and driving. even better, cops have a laptop sitting right next to them, where they type and drive all the time, checking license plates or pulling up information relevant to a call. I hadn't thought of that! I wonder if that should be illegal while driving, too. It is for most people, but as I've said the police have exclusions when it's part of their job. That said, they rarely use the laptop / iPad while driving. Such devices are usually used to, for example, quickly check the details of a car they have just stopped before the police get out to talk to the driver. |

I hadn't thought of that! I wonder if that should be illegal while driving, too. Distracted Driving takes many forms and that would be one. In MA they are trying to pass a law making anything using hands is illegal. Specific they mention programming the GPS. Yes, that can be distracting. Tried it and found it easier and safer to pull over. All distractions are already covered by "Dangerous Driving" / "Driving With undue Care" laws. For example, there's no specific law telling you not to read a book or put on make-up while driving, but you'll still get ticketed for doing it. Cellphone specific laws (where appropriate) were created simply to make it 100% clear to the selfish and the dimbulbs ... but still many morons ignore those laws, thinking they know better and are "special". |
