Cell phone users endanger the public

I am writing about the issues of cell phones and driving.

I was taking my baby to day care recently and saw a woman talking on her cell phone not driving straight. She was riding my tailpipe all because she was talking on the phone.

When I put on the blinker and put on my brakes she slammed on her brakes and almost hit my car with my baby in it and honked her horn at me. Because she was on the phone, she put my child at risk.

She isn’t the only one on a phone when driving. Use ear pieces or don’t talk. No one should have to be put at risk because you can’t wait to park to talk.
