Anecdotal evidence, but I’ve been driven into twice over the course of the last two weeks after driving every day for ten years and never having had a crash. Whether it’s touch screens mounted in the car or people being on their phone, something has to be done about people being distracted while driving.

I’m in Germany and using your phone while driving can lead to your license being revoked - the problem is that it’s not really enforced at all in my experience. Maybe it should be.

Rant over, I’m just honestly pissed about my car being wrecked TWICE and me being paranoid looking in the rear view mirror every time I’m stood still because people apparently can’t register a car standing at a signal.

I mean I doubt the problem went from 0 to 100 in the last few months, so I’m just not sure your anecdote says much about the amount of distracted driving, just bad luck.

Yeah no, I agree. Still though, I do think people being distracted while driving is a big problem.
