really man? I mean honestly? bad examples. just crappy.
1) wrong about which point, some things your right about, some your not.
2)You havent shown any facts that show anything I have said to be incorrect, except the inter-state facts. But I still feel my opinion is more reflective of the real driving situation in the US. you have a FAILURE to show any facts on how its just as safe to drive at any speed with a cell phone.
3)Yes they are. Arizona is the worst state I have ever driven in, and I have driven in most of them, and all the states you mentioned. The second you cross over this state line, the drivers get horrendous.
4)learn to use google, I know people IN THE COUNTRIES I MENTIONED AND PEOPLE WHOM HAVE DRIVEN IN BOTH.
5)You fail to show any proof of that. You have stated only that you are a distracted cell phone using Arizona driver.
6)so what, make a law that says that the police can use them, then make it convenient so they dont have to do it with a phone to their ear, problem solved, hands free, easy peasy.
Lane splitting is a safety thing. I wish every state had that law, It is the best thing about cali. Not to say some people dont abuse it and act like morons, but when used correctly, lane splitting saves lives. I have actually saved my own life on 3 separate occasions by lane splitting, once in cali, and twice illegally in AZ.
I have had two of my favorite vehicles destroyed, and might I add these accidents were %100 unavoidable. and both were caused by a distracted driver on their phone in one way or another.
I never had an accident in PA. Not once. Never saw one either that wasnt some hardcore serious shit. I see 2-3 every single day out here, all of them are stupid,. failure to pay attention accidents.
Then just doing a count ( I actually did this) 1 out of every 3 drivers ON A GOOD DAY is on their phone.
I go back to PA did the same count, guess what, I got 1 out of every 7.
