That story hit close to home, as I live in Greater Huntsville.

Here's one from Philadelphia, related to cell-phone usage while walking:

Crikey, I wish I was a cop sometimes.

I had a jerk do a lane change in front of me yesterday on the freeway. No turn signal, did not accelerate after pulling out in front of me, just the usual BS. Not the worse instance of being cut off but I definetly had to do more than just take my foot off of the accelerator.

When I changed lanes to leave the bozo in my wake, I looked to see who this idiot was and what he was doing. He was texting.

Happened to me two days ago - except I was on a two lane highway and the jerk coming into my lane and forcing me to the shoulder at 68 MPH was among the oncoming vehicles. Another key difference is that it was a local cop busy texting.

I guess he wasn't obeying the letter of the law.

Must have been a liberal cop.

I notice more cops talking on the phone and txting while driving since they made it illegal to do so. Makes me so mad.
