What is wrong with people. Brazen as you like chatting away or texting. Many aren't youngsters either. Does my head in.

I wish there was a way of grassing up these morons.

Current penalties for this should be increased ten fold.

Then buy one old bean, they are as cheap as 30 quid nowadays, easy to install and if someone drives into you then you have all the evidence you need! Plus some insurance companies offer a discount if you have one apparently, no brainer really ðŸ‘

Although I agree with Jackfath's opening post, I could never give footage to the police.

Not even if some loon was doing 50mph past a primary school with children about? Break the law and expect the consequences.

There are a few exceptions but in general, I wouldn't send evidence to the police.

Dashcams are for w*nkers and doggers.

As for phones, when I walk in the mornings I've noticed a very larger percentage of people using their phones.

Fair enough, but after seeing the footage of that lorry driver ( captured by his own dash cam) on his phone seconds before he slammed into a car killing a mother and three children is justification enough for sending footage in to the authorities.

In car water pipes as an optional extra is the way to go.

I once proposed that to some lawyers who turned out to do quite a bit of patent work, during a break in a big acquisition negotiation in New York while the CEOs were mano a mano.

I told then what separated my idea from typical pie in the sky inventions was I had actually completed significant R&D and product development, using a variety of low cost items like buckets and old coke bottles.

We were all pissing ourselves by the time the CEOs got back.

The times i've nearly run into the back of a car at the lights when they're on green and the guy in front doesn't move.

They often have their heads down fiddling with something - I guess they're texting.

Couldn't agree more with the OP.
You see it every day, absolutely shocking.
Saw a bloke yesterday driving a van, he obviously had his mobile on his lap, he wasn't even looking at the road as he was driving.
The laws need toughening up and more idiots like this brought to book.

Using a mobile whilst driving should carry the same penalty as drink driving, it's just as dangerous.

Been out doing a lot of walking recently and the jumber of cars you see being driven by drivers who are looking down towards their laps is unbelievable. It’s not just a quick glance some are looking down there for 2to 3 seconds which is a lng time when you are driving.

That would depend on the degree of drunkeness.

So you think the person knocked down and killed, gives a toss whether the driver was drunk or texting, same outcome, both equally as dangerous and irresponsible in my eyes.
