The evil drunk driver or the common sober and distracted driver?...why?
Riding a motorcycle in the summer has gotten a **** of a lot scarier in the past 5-10yrs. On top of the usual hazards, animals, people pulling out in front of you, now you have all these people driving around on their damn phones. We now judge a successful ride by how few times you throw the bird being cut off, almost t-boned, close to ran over each time out.
Distracted driver, most of the time I’m on the road (day time) I think way more distracted drivers. When I worked 2nd and 3 shift probably the drunk driver. Some of the worst are the teen and 20 something girls as soon as they get on the highway they move to the left lane and never move.
The boys do it as well - obviously not being taught "Slower traffic keep right" and "Left lane is the passing lane" anymore.
As for the type of driver, people with their phones in their faces has really become an issue, IMO. Its so easy to tell who has their phone in their hands as you come up behind someone.
True with boys but I’ve noticed girls more. On the second part with phones that seems to be adults and to go further men holding it about a foot from there face and almost straight in front of there view. At least during highway driving. And in Illinois people don’t even try to hide they are on the phone when driving even though it is a hands free state. All thinks observed over the years and yes probably guilty myself at times.
