Also, had to tell some 16 year old to put down his phone while driving. He gave me some lip and I put him in his place at the next light where we had a chance to chat. Fuckin entitled millenials or whatever that generation is called
I hope this time around they make it Illegal here in Texas to use the phone while driving and in force it!!

They did here a few years back. It helped for a bit, then slowly people got brace again and now I'm not sure how much different it is from before except that you risk a $500 fine or something like that for distracted driving.

It's illegal to text while driving here and it hasn't worked. The cops are still texting...
We've got some of the most self-centered oblivious drivers in the nation. They Might as well not even waste the money for stop signs or turn signals.
Rant to be continued.

Around here cops would be exempt from laws like that. They say they have "special training" or some such bullsh*t. Not sure who they think they are fooling, or if they care that they are fooling anyone at all.

Heck, they even changed the decals on their cars some years back from "to serve and protect" to "courage, vigilance, pride"

I guess they're also exempt from all other traffic laws. Like signaling, stopping at stop signs.
Seems to me that police tend to make up laws as they go along. I wouldn't have their job, but they shouldn't take liberties just because of the danger.
I believe all in "leadership" roles should be doubly responsible and held to a higher standard. That's what being a leader is all about.

Told you the rant would continue.

No argument there. Even worse than the double standard is the blue wall they hide behind when they get caught with their hand in the cookie jar.

Doing some test fit with H DEPOT mesh, not the final product,
need to removed the bumper to do it properly and paint them black
What do you think guys?
