First of all, if you were rear ended, then the traffic was obviously moving at least intermittently. You have a right to be angry about that. I would be too. This isn't what I'm speaking of. My route puts me at several intersections where I don't move AT ALL for 4-6 minutes at a time. It's simply how the lights time out at that level of traffic volume. So I know I'll be siting in one spot, with my engine turned off, btw, for at least four minutes or more. That's when I text or check emails and do other stuff. Not while I'm crawling along, but when I'm stopped and not moving.

If you can't appreciate the difference in those two scenarios, then I'd suggest you're actively not doing so, looking to be angry. [/quote]

Since you're not still there -- and I really hope that you're not posting on DCUM from your car -- that means that at some point, you move.

It's fine to do whatever on your phone when you're actually parked. When you are driving in traffic that is moving, even intermittently moving, please stay off your phone. There is no justification for it. Your texts and e-mails and other stuff can wait. Or if they can't, please pull over and actually park.[/quote]
