Austin drivers, put your damn phone down
If yall are driving behind the wheel of a vehicle, you need to get off your fuckin phones. I don’t care if you’re actively driving or stopped, put the cellphone down. There’s no reason you need to be on that thing while you are operating a 4,000lb vehicle. I’m a bicyclist and my eyes are constantly scanning the road, the number of drivers I see actively texting or otherwise scrolling is just egregious - blowing stop signs and red lights, stopping in an intersection cause they were on their phone going too fast to stop in time, weaving into different lanes of traffic, simply not going at a green light cause they’re more invested in their screen than the road. You are not the only person that exists in the world and your actions could have real life consequences to other drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists. Accept some personal responsibility before you kill someone.
And before you think “well no one saw me”. I did! And I report you and your license plate to the city every time. Eat shit
