Ok, so this has been bothering me all morning. I saw this woman this morning who was talking on her cell, texting, eating, drinking, smoking, doing make-up, trying to read something (newspaper, perhaps?) and fidgeting with the radio.. all while driving.
I can't say that I'm perfect, because I'm not. I talk, text, smoke and eat and drink, all while driving, but never all at the same time. I know, I shouldn't do any of those, but oh well. I get yelled at at least once a week from a certain someone who shall remain nameless that I shouldn't text and drive. Sorry.
Anyways, the point of this blog is ask this simple question: why do people multi-task while driving? Doing make-up and reading the paper, or whatever, shouldn't that be done either before or after you leave? If you're running late, get up earlier! Is it really that difficult? I have a habit of getting up 5 minutes before I have to leave, but 1) I don't drive to work. I ride with someone else and 2) I don't worry about that crap. I do it when I get home if I feel the need.
This particular woman is an accident waiting to happen, and when it does, who is she going to blame it on? She couldn't possibly be watching the road that closely if she's concentrating on everything else.
GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!
