It seems apparent the level of stupidity is rising at an alarming rate. For the life of me I do not understand the addiction to social media and the incessant need to check for updates of every minute of every day. To that point, each day I witness countless people looking down at their phones while driving. What could possibly be so important that you have to put other people’s lives in danger? The answer is simply nothing. If there is an emergency, chances are you will receive a phone call. So to those of you who think the world will stop if you don’t see what someone is having for breakfast, lunch, dinner, what someones cat is doing, or anything that involves checking social media while you are behind the wheel, please STOP. Checking or answering those tweets, twits, chirps, texts, emails, dings, rings, or dongs while driving is putting lives in danger.
