personally if my city had this problem i would pull out right away expecting the red light runner... but i would never go far enough for him to hit me, he freaks out swerves and crashes. that would probably teach him not to do so. but what can I say im cold hearted.

Hehe Well, I'm not at that point, I might get hurt. I'll tell you this however, the first dimwit hits me taking or texting is in the for the court experience of their lives. I used to drive 800 - 1500 a week in a company ride with a gas card. My first cell was in a bag, speaking and driving was hands free and hardly anyone had phones. Now people feel the need to have a dialogue while you wait to get at a head of lettuce at the grocery. During that career I saw:

people with the laptop open and in use on the passenger seat

NY Times on the horn pad, article being read at 70 +

full make up job at highway speed, including doing eyelashes

That's why I get a little nuts about 7 mph speeding tickets, I'll take the speeder paying attention exclusively to his driving any day.
