So while driving tonight...

(well, H was driving and I was the passenger), I look over and see the guy next to us READING A FREAKING BOOK while driving 50 MPH down a busy street during rush hour. Like he had the book held up in front of his face and was occasionally glancing over the top of it to see where he was going. We lost him at a light and hopefully he didn't run into anybody.

Isn't this what audio books are for? Like, I'm still shocked I actually legit saw someone reading a book while driving. I have seen a lot of stupid stuff people do behind the wheel, but this is a first.

What?!?! Omg! What an idiot!

[RoxMonster]

Yeah, we were beside him for maybe 5 or so seconds and then he got ahead of us and made a light (well, ran a yellow) that we got stopped at. I didn't know his LP number and besides the fact he was in a van or SUV, I didn't honestly know what make/model. I was in shock over the fact that someone was actually reading behind the wheel.

Old fashioned texting while driving? Yikes. I hope he gets pulled over.

[karmasabiotch]

Scary. In what way could this ever be ok?

[dukesilver]

Holy shit, that is terrifying.

I've seen someone doing this on the interstate. What is wrong with people?
