Yep, young people on their phones are definitely the problem. Not dangerous drivers that kill thousands of people (mainly other drivers) each year. (feddit.uk)

Yep, unfortunately a lot of people haven't experienced what good traffic planning, cooperation & educated drivers can accomplishes on a daily basis in many European countries.

In my experience, the worst and most commonly recurring offenders are phone zombies on e-scooters. Possibly due to being more dangerous than pedestrians and more noticeable than a distracted highway driver.

E-scooters are considered bikes in the traffic laws here, and bikes need to yield to cars in crosswalks. But it's not often that scooter drivers yield to cars, but most car drivers still stop for them regardless.
