    Driving report

    In the last week I have watched women plucking eyebrows and curling their eye lashes with that tool at traffic lights. I watched a woman read a newspaper while on the cell phone this morning. I see women putting on makeup all the time as well.
    What are these women thinking???

    I've seen the same....

    Had one woman who was obviously looking down and fumbling with her cell phone turn wide in an intersection at Hamburg and ran me completely over a grass median. I had no choice but ditch it over the median, otherwise she would have hit me head on. She drove on, oblivious, while I got out and surveyed the grass and mud stuck to the bottom of my Mustang. Luckily, I rode it out with no damage to my car....or I would have found her, beleeeedat!

    However, it aint just the ladies. We have a salesperson who routinely reads the paper while driving down the interstate....he has been pulled over for it.

    I hate to say it, but my wife used to be one of those women. It took me ten years to straighten her out! The scary thing is that she is a TERRIBLE driver when not impaired by other tasks! Add putting on makeup to that...she's SCARY!!!

    The teenage girl texting while driving is the scariest to me....they are TOTALLY oblivious to what is going on around them while they drive! man...

    I don't write many tickets but I will for that in a second. That is my pet peeve, that and loud music.

    I agree. I don't even see how they can text and drive, it would be physically impossible for me. Besides, I will never text and drive I am afraid I would spill my beer!

    Its not just women doing this. I've seen plenty of guys reading newspapers/books, using electric shavers, texting, etc. Heck, I have a fishing partner that has the bad habit of texting while driving. I'm thinking the next time I see him do it I'll toss out all of his tubes so he can't catch a fish

    I see this crap all the time. We had a fella take us to court here at work because he ran off the road and trashed his car. It was a wide load with flashing lights on TWO escort vehicles and signs galore. There was a witness at the scene that gave a police report that he was following this Nimrod and saw the whole thing, guess what he was doing????? Reading a book on the steering wheel. He denied it and it went to court to where our lawyer brought in the witness and it was thrown out. He also had to pay our court costs in the end, lol.
