You're not a good driver if you look at your phone whilst driving.

Nor type on it.

But it was ten buzzes! What is she supposed to do, not glance?!

Though, if she's driving close enough to a person that a quick glance is going to cause an accident, she's definitely a bad driver.

So 99% of people on the road. Even when they are not looking at their phone people don't understand what a safe following distance is. The amount of times I've had to try to explain to my friends that no this is not a safe following distance you are currently less than 2 seconds at your current speed from them is infuriating.

The amount of people who will go around me when I maintaining a four-second following distance because I'm not tailgating the car in front of me is equally infuriating.

I'll be honest,

If I'm driving down a frequently used route, and the person in front of me is going 5-8 mph slower than i usually do

I'll go into "autopilot" and start to creep up on them.

If i realize I'm doing it, I'll back away
