Sounds like you live in Austin.
I’ve personally experienced people almost killing me with their erratic driving there. Then when you honk at them, to let them know what they did was jacked up, they want to pick a fight with you — for making them aware of their terrible behavior.
The extreme self entitlement has gotten out of hand. Unfortunately, I don’t see it getting any better.

I thought about this .
It would have to be court ordered for flagged dangerous drivers because of chronic taxing or cell phone use .
Instead of a breathalyzer lock like drunk drivers .
The order would install an app connected to The GPS in the phone . Which would shut the phone off once they do over 30 miles an hour .
The offenders could be flagged over a wreck while texting or a couple distracted driving tickets .
Similar to drunk driving laws so there won’t be any civil liberty issues .
Normally when I have a “Epiphany” like this. Somebody shows me that it’s already been done .
Well? Lol
A question if you please

I’ll be honest, I did not wish just a fat ticket on him. I wished that he would drive his car off an embankment, get seriously injured— then got a fat ticket.....
