I just saw a driver blocking a right turn lane, with 4 cars honking their horns behind her, while she was speaking on her phone.
what a piece of shit
I've been driving for 20 years now. I think the first 10 years i never used my horn once. I always thought it's pointless when someone doesn't doesn't go immediately when the traffic light turns green. Now a days and since i drive for work a lot, i honk maybe once a day because people don't go, because they are usually on their phones or filming tiktoks or whatever the hell. It's sometimes downright scary seeing people on the other lane just driving absolutely blind.
Unpopular take, any video uploaded with the speaker driving and recording should be issues an instant fine and videos banned from the internet.
I think that’s a very popular take here!
I stopped driving as soon as I move to a city. sounds really dangerous
