I want to slap people who use their cell phones while they drive. 

The other day, I was riding back from lunch with a friend.

He was driving and I was in the passenger seat.

I looked over and I noticed a young lady on her phone.

We both start to merge on the highway, and when I look back over, I notice that she's still on her phone.

She wasn't just casually texting. 

I noticed that her thumb was moving. Which means she was scrolling.

Immediately, I said to myself.

“Self…what in the hell is wrong with this idiot girl?”

As soon as that thought left my head, I noticed what was on her windshield.

A freaking parking ticket!

I don't know this young lady, but everything about her disappointed me.

 We're driving side-by-side with her for a minute or two.

 She's scrolling and driving the entire time.

 I told my buddy about it. He looked over and couldn't believe it.

 So…he honked the shit out of his horn.

 I tell you it was as if her soul re-entered her body.

She dropped her phone, straightened up, gripped the steering wheel with both hands, and scanned around looking for danger. 

I told my buddy…job well done.

Do you run into these idiot cell phone drivers? Let me know.

Have a good Sunday.
