Subject: You Talkin to Me?
Living in a hands-free cell zone, I can readily attest to seeing way too many folks still going without headsets or speakerphones, instead continuing to hold the phone with one hand and goodness knows what else in the other.
And these folks are frwquently in the left lane, driving slower than anyone else.
I recommend the following to anyone the next time they have to shift into the right lane to pass a cell violator hogging the left lane - get back into the left lane and tap on the brakes just hard enough to light your brake lights. Then watch Mr. or Ms. Gottacall wake up as they spill coffee, drop phones, lose cigs whatever.
