As I was driving home from work today i was stopped at a red light waiting for traffic to go. I got bored as i do if i am not entertained for more than five seconds. i started looking around people and car watching.
There was a minivan behind me that I noticed. The driver was smoking. This is a problem because smoking is terrible for your health. In a moving vehicle is even worse as it is huge distraction from driving. Funny thing I noticed that she had her windows closed.
Light is still red. She then raised her hand up and she was holding a Blackberry texting away. So neither hand was on the wheel of her minivan. She was going back and forth between her smoke and the Blackberry.
Light turned green. I glance back before I go there was children jumping around in the car WITHOUT seat belts on. So she was smoking with children in the car with the windows closed, texting, while driving with the kids hopping around from front to back and side to side.
We drove off and stopped at the next light. She was parked beside me. I was so mad because she did not touch the steering wheel the whole time she drove. Texting and smoking away kids still not belted in. I got out of my car but she sped off before i could bang on the window to tell her to put her phone down, get her kids belted in, and put out that damn cigarette.
