I see people talking on the phone and/or texting whilst driving all the time, it annoys me greatly and I would love to see the police launch an ongoing blitz to stamp it out.
Having said that, road rage seems to be increasing and is a great concern, I can't honestly say I condone his actions but I certainly understand his anger at the situation.

talking on the phone is much the same as drinking a cup of coffee when driving. Currently, there isn't any problem with a cup of coffee. Smoking when driving is also a dangerous thing to do but people do it. Dropping a cup of coffee in your lap or a cigarette can both be deadly. Phones are not the only bad habit.08 MY09 R32, DBP, DSG, GIAC, R8V10 reps, KW V3, RNS510/VIM/BT/MDI, region free DVD, switched Haldex, s2t paddles,HPA dogbone rubber,Mk7 climatronics, FIS+, Adams/RDA discs & Hawk pads, Garage button, GruppeM.

Road rage, for whatever reason, idiotic. Fools like that need to be off the road as much as the idiot on the phone.

What the driver of the car who was on the phone got away with (or not) is irrelevant
The real idiot here is the guy who got out of his car and thought he was something special, axe or not.

As sad as that is, there is no excuse for road rage and anyone advocating it is as much an idiot as the person committing road rageOriginally posted by kaanage View Post8VSS2L/16 E9E9 XG MP SPP1 4ZD 6XK CSC5P with an extra free 10kWComment

As I said, I don't consider it road rage in this instance since there was an accident. If she'd caused him to swerve and recover and he chased her down and did this, then THAT would be road rage IMOResident grumpy old fart

I agree to an extent. But the main problem with talking on the phone is that your brain is focusing on the conversation rather than driving. For that reason, I'd make the assertion that whether you're on bluetooth or holding the phone, the main distraction is the conversation, not holding the handset. Hopefully someone can drink a coffee without too much cognitive deprivationOriginally posted by greg32 View PostComment
