It is very illegal to use a hand held device while driving where I live and the fines were recently raised dramatically but many, many people just do it anyway. The worst seem to be teenage girls who literally seem to forget that they are driving a car.
Here are a few Mobius varifocal captures from two days ago of a teenage girl just as she appears to be receiving a call on her phone. Traffic is moving along slowly but moving. She places the phone down on her center console and spends a long time staring at it, never even once looking up at the road while proceeding to fix her hair with both hands. Her car is moving forward during this time. At some point she transfers the phone to her lap so she can text, still never looking up. Unbelievable, hands off the steering wheel and a not even looking at the road! At one point, she is so oblivious to her surroundings and lost in whatever she was doing on her phone that she came to a full stop in moving traffic. (third image below) As I got closer I had to hit my horn to remind her that she was supposed to be driving her car in moving traffic and not stopped and lost in texting on her phone. Just a month ago, in this thread I described a very similar story about a teenage girl doing essentially the same thing and now here it is again on camera. Amazing!
