Cagers Texting

[pastybee]

I dont know if anyone has had problems and i know this is a common thing these days but heading to work today driving at the speed limit in the right had lane i was passing a car who drifted on to my side of the road so took a wee bit of swerve, looked in the window and this lady was busy texting on her phone. Pissed me of as i see this alot so i passed my comments on to her the best way i know how which was with a middle finger raise.
Any way i felt comfort that she was quite good looking so i will not hold to much off a grudge towards her.

Well thats my whinge for the day

Yeah, see it all the time these days. Really bad.

Imagine when they get older and they can't change focus from near to far as quick as they used to.

Unfortunately she probably has no idea why this hooligan on a motorbike came roaring past her and abused her for no apparent reason. Bloody motorcyclists........

maybe they were busy text bullying?

Texting? In a cage? No problem - just set CruiseControl and away you go.

[R6_kid:Me]

if i see people talking on their cellphone i pull up next to them pull the clutch in and let them know what 15,000rpm sounds like for a few seconds...

We should try doing it on our bikes and see how the cagers like it!!! Do it while filtering that will really piss them off.

bloody cell phones.. >>
My mates get all pissed off when i don't reply to them promptly.
"I was driving.." "so?"
Some people are just stupid.

Paint stripper? hmm, sounds fairly extreme.. though phones in cars are a big problem..

hate it here too.....i did read a txt while on the bike, but it didnt last long. phone quickly went back into pocket so i wouldnt drop the damn thing.

Fark. I just had a brilliant idea . (well all my ideas are brilliant, just this one is bodaciously so).

LEDs, right. Use 'em for tail-lights and such.

So what if one had an array of LEDS across the back of the bike. Quite legal methinks, is the tail/brake light.

But, a special switch switches some of the LEDS off. So that ones left spell words. *SUITABLE* words! Then all y'need to do is get in front of cage and flick the switch. And if you hooked up a little microprocessor and a wee keypad, the words could be dynamic.

Shit this is brilliant. We've got a bazillion electronic boffins on here, wotz it need to make it a goer ?

ease off guys

i do it everytime i hop in the car

even do it on ym bike.

never crashed while ive been texting - or made someone else crash....

Stuff texting, using a phone at all in a cage should be an offence.

Stuff texting, using a phone at all in a cage should be an offence.

I could be wrong, but I believe you can already get a ticket under the existing laws. I cant remember the actual wording of the offense but it has to do with not paying attention - could be careless use, but I think it's something different.

Any of the rozzers on here care to comment.
