Earlier this week I noticed a man filming me with his cellphone while down Raleigh Rd in . Finally got the chance to pull my bike-cam footage and get some screenshots of his vehicle. It's the gray Ford Explorer with the wakeradiology.com branding.

If you see his video of me (white woman, yellow helmet, black mid-tail cargo bike) posted anywhere on the internet, please report it. What he did was illegal & creepy AF.

Ask me how awesome it feels to watch driver after driver cut you off in a while looking at their phones.

This is why we need dedicated, protected phases at every intersection.

And not after making us wait for 3 minutes.

Please and thank you.

if you see a self-driving car pulled over by a cop, it's because it was driving like a moron while gossiping on the phone with other self-driving cars.

Drivers: Please don't call me while you're driving. Please don't pick up while you're driving. Please don't text me while you're driving.

Please do not tell me it's ok because x, y, or z. I have personally seen countless counter-examples for every single excuse I've heard.

It is not ok.

You are operating deadly machinery. Please don't make me complicit in your distracted driving.

Thanks!

New law means you can be pulled over for holding a phone while driving - law makes holding the phone while driving probable cause for a traffic stop.

I watched a person in a modern vehicle holding a pretty good conversation on their phone while driving, and couldn’t help but think, “Who in this day and age drives with a phone to their head?” Lots going on this time of year. Lets all be safe out there.

Slightly off-topic of this article, this chart says "using cannabis" slows reactions much more than the (UK) alcohol limit (~2-3hrs after one pint), but does that mean they have a bong in one hand, lighter in the other, driving with a knee, and already a few bowls into it? Seems like it needs the same specificity as the alcohol reference. Still not as bad as talking on the hands-free though. 😟
