    I completely agree...

    But was that texting and driving? Cause that was really really bad driving. Havin done it before - but not anymore (though do occasionally read emails at stops) I can't say I ever drove out of my lane. The real danger I see, at least to a competent driver, is not having enough time to stop, since you look down for that split second.

    could "have" killed a family.


    But yeah, that driver should not be allowed back on the road.

    We all thought about this before "I hope this f***ker that's talking/texting would get in a serious accident"

    but when it actually happens, I seriously feel sorry for that person... life is pretty much over at that point, get ready to be in a mountain of debt for a really really long time

    Thankfully my daily commute to and from work are full of very sensible people, haven't seen a single accident occur in the past 3 years (knock on wood)

    Texting? More likely he was wasted and/ or falling asleep.

    If that fool clipped me with my family in the car, I would have knocked them out.

    This is a better explanation and makes perfect sense. Being sleepy on the wheel is worse than being drunk.

    That was intense. Could have been much worse.
    Right?! Dude sees the guy texting, and so he follows him around taking video of the guy while driving. oh, and safe distance my achin' arse.

    The guy could have called the cops about an erratic driver rather than to just video record it

    The 2nd video states that he called the cops, and honked his horn and flickered his lights before he started recording.
