    I would`ve dobbed the female in and not just for using her phone, because she pulled a finger. When people do some thing like that, I see it as a guilty sign of them knowing they had done some thing wrong.

    its ridiculas the amount of ppl that use their phone whilst driving,
    I would say nearly every 4th car would have some one talking or texting.
    I for the life in me can't see what is so important that a message needs to
    be sent right now instead of waiting till they can pull over and text safely.
    Even "blue tooth" can be distracting

    I'm on the road all the time for work so I see it all the time. I've learnt not to stress it and just laugh.
    I have a dashcam in my work ute and just got one for the patrol yesterday

    I will be honest, I use my phone to select a new artist on my phone as the bt controls on the deck are lousy. I try to wait till a light but being out rural that usually isnt the case. I havent workedout the best way to answer a call on my head unit either! Gonna have to cause I agree it can be pretty dangerous to be distracted by your phone

    I used to do a lot of driving for work, and spent a lot of this time on the phone (also for work). I have always used hands free (10+ years), as I have always chosen to drive manuals. I used to text while I was driving in the days before touchscreen, because i knew all the keys on my phone without looking at them.
    Now i may glance at my phone if i'm stationary for a while (e.g. stopped at lights in a queue of traffic etc) but not while i'm moving.
    5 yrs ago I was stopped at lights and was hit at 80Km/h by a P-plater distracted by 'something' - according to police (likely phone or stereo). It was a huge crash and i'm left with a small restriction of movement in my neck, but it could have been a lot worse. She broke her leg, but again, it could have been a lot worse.
    So, if i'm on the move, my eyes are on the road .... simples
