Almost got rear-ended today

By a girl texting. She was so close to hitting us. I looked up in the rear-view mirror, saw that she was looking down at her phone, so I crept forward as much as I could and hoped for the best. She realized just in time to vere to the right so she didn't hit us.


The whole time, though, I was thinking about what seats I would replace the 3 in my car with if she had hit us. :whistle:

That must have been so scary. But this is just another example of why I HATE texting and driving...or being on the phone in general while driving.

It is crazy. I'm glad you were not hit.

I watched a lady side swipe another as she texted. They were pulling up to a red light and she was driving with both hands at the top of her steering wheel with her thumbs just a going. I was across from them at the intersection so I made sure police knew. Especially since it was in a school zone and we have extra laws in school zones.

¡May contain dyac moments!

I hate when people text behind me! Makes me cringe just wondering when/if they're going to hit me. OP, glad nothing happened. Just out of curiosity, what would you replace your seats with?
