Tickets While Walking and Texting?
Now this is the most ridiculous thing ever. A pedestrian is walking and God forbid, they stop paying attention and bump into another person? How hard can a bump really be? Jaywalking, yes. That is just pure stupidity and these stupid people should be taught a lesson. If they want to issue tickets to people simply walking down the street, not harming anyone or themselves, then I completely disagree. I just think this is yet another money making scheme from the Government. I am very passionate about these things…Its the same with using your phone while driving. A phone conversation should be allowed. Texting should be banned while driving. But I will be ok with the whole no phone unless it is handsfree until they stop eating while driving. Number one, you are sitting on your ass eating a burger or whatever. What if you spill something on youself then distraction distraction while cleaning it up…equally as dangerous as having a phone to an ear no?
