Who's driving ?

I wouldn't ride with anyone not paying attention or texting. That's a good way to get everyone in the car killed.

Luckily, my officemate who drives the car would ask permission to pull over whenever he needs to text someone. Yes, we know that it is important to give full focus ro driving.

I agree that some people are careless by texting or calling while driving a car.

I don't have a car for over twenty five years as I use public transport here which is very good. I am curious about driverless cars. Yes, I too get nervous when some drive and what a relief when the journey is over! siva

That is very scary if they are texting while driving. They have to pay attention to what they are doing. There are other people in the car. It is very rare that I ride in a car these days. I ride on my scooter and I observe people around me and see what bikers do. They go through red lights, they talk on their phone while riding their bike and they come around the corner so fast and come very close to me that they do not honk a horn to let me know they are there. I feel when I am on my scooter I have to pay attention to all that is around me.

I don't drive even though I have a driver license. My hubby drives and he is very careful when he drives. He never use his smartphone when he drives because there are police traffic on the lookout. If caught using smartphone whether texting or on the phone the driver will be penalized with summon tickets.

i'm attentive if we're going somewhere new, or if i'm not familiar with the driver.

Texting and driving is illegal here. I too would be anxious if they did that. I prefer it when someone else is driving

This is a big issues these days and they are paying price for that as well Krystle

My wife always does the driving - even if I'm the one holding the steering wheel!
