Heading down a duel carriage way outside Durham. I was a comfortable distance behind a van doing around 65mph in the Almera and a truck was a good distance behind me but closing fast as I think he was going to overtake.
All was well nothing unusual there.
That was until we all rounded the next sweeping corner and there was a women stopped in the carriage way answering her MOBILE PHONE
The van braked hard, I was OK as I had loads of room to stop. The van swerved to miss the stationary car and the truck who was about to overtake had no where to go. Luckily the van speeded up so the truck could go past us safely and the stupid moron in the parked car in the middle of the duel carriageway. But for those few seconds when I saw that truck looming up behind I thought I was finished
I was mad as hell and blasted my horn at her and she was totally oblivious and happily texting away
I saw a young girl a few nights back driving along with her phone on her steering wheel texting and she was about 10 feet from the car in front.
What is the matter with these people, can they not put their bloody phones down for a while to at least get home with EVERYONE in one piece
