@TheNewsOwl I have seen people on here posting pics they took while driving and I want to scream at them to put their phones down.
In the UK, if you're caught as much as touching your phone while driving, you can potentially lose your license.
@stueytheround I can not stand when people do such. I wish we had stricter lawa on such tbh.
