These people - like they are now - are trained to drive at any speed -
while communicating about the incident, they are involved in or heading to
---
It's not about concentrating on driving while -
Deciding with the spouse etc where to go for Dinner
(while secretly, your thinking about, having to spend the Evening with the Wifes' sisters Husband again)
Or getting an earful from your Boss , about why you are late to bent client
(while You are really thinking about ways to kill Him)
or arguing with the Girlfriend/Boy
(while You think about, the make Up Sex)
Or going over complicated matters, about Business or Your work
That ones enough on it's own -
You are now concentrating on stats, costs, measurements, timescale,spare parts
ALL WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING on Roads, with other People doing the same
------------------
We no longer 'Chat' on the phone while driving
We continue our connected lives - it's the Driving thats the add-on now
THATS WHY IT IS DANGEROUS
--------
I don't mean trying talking to your partner, who is on the pohone, while driving.
I mean when they are just talking to someone on phone and
you are standing.sitting beside them
See what happens
I did not come from a phone family, we never had one.
I still don't chat on the phone, never have, even on mobiles
My ex-wife did - She couldn't do without a House phone, never mind a Mobile
She like most others, have been wedded to a phone their whole life,
way worse now with Mobiles-
It doesn't register with them, how much concentration a call takes
But they Do all complain about their kids, being like a zombie on that Tablet
'You can't communicate with them'
---
Think about it
How many funny videos of People have you watched
Of all the mishaps of People, falling, tripping, walking off Piers , canal/river
walking straight into road
While WALKING not driving
