Was almost rolled over by a car last month while I was on a bicykle, young man driving, his head and eyes and one hand were down and he looked at his nap, he saw me last second and hand flashed up to the wheel - a smartphone in it. He did not even care to brake, just rolled on, at not slow speed.



Better for him, for I was furious, if he would have stopped, he would have received quite some.



Damn smartphone zombies. The penalties for such violations must be draconically raised, the must really hurt (something neither lawmaker nor our endlessly pedagogizing courts judges simply do not understand. 6 months driving license retired, half a month'S income. Its potential slaughter. Once an first time offender has been lectured about the risks and does it again, I rate it even as attempted murder.
