I can kind of understand being temporarily distracted when a message comes in and your phone chirps, but wow... watching a video while you operate a 3000 pound machine is next-level idiocy.

I haven't been driving as much in recent years wasn't aware of this trend. (Except for Tesla drivers: 5 years ago, I remember looking over to see a Tesla on autopilot next to me, doing 60 on Seattle's 520 bridge with the driver totally checked out and watching a video.)

Yeah, I saw a Tesla driver watching a video on his dashboard TV while running stop signs here. Good thing the other drivers were paying attention.
