I just drove today for 80 miles on interstates to look at an ultralight airplane with my brother. We saw four or five instances of people getting really stupid, in the left lane on I 40 doing 55 in a 65 zone etc. In every case, the driver, usually a young female, was texting on an Iphone. Using an Iphone while driving is more dangerous than drunk driving.
We met with the guy selling the ultralight, he was limping a little. Six weeks ago, he was stopped at a stop light in Cullowhee NC, on his BMW motorcycle, a gal rear ended him and totalled his bike. She was doing 35 and never even hit the brakes. She was texting on the Iphone.
He told me he "suffered a fracture of the 10th thoracic vertebra."
I am an old paramedic. I said, "You mean, you have a broken back. Why are you still breathing air?"
The Iphone is the new religion. It is a monster. I hate Iphones.
We had a pretty good country 15 years ago and the Iphone had not been invented.
