… so why do you text and drive?
Raileks
I used to read while walking all the time as a kid. Never ran into anything. Then I tried to read a phone and walk and suddenly *crash*.
IAmTheGorilla
Which is why I do neither. Safer that way.

they're very important persons.

Im kinda guilty of running into someone's car in a part walking while I was texting. They were in the car. Very concerned.

Why can't people use their peripheral vision? I text and walk and I don't walk into shit.
squirrelfury
Also not smart enough to memorize things when they glance up.

Guy kinda leans into that one.

So if i can text and walk...?

We know.. They are still both being Idiots. Atleast not a car

Does @AbortedFetusNecrophiliac have another account? This is a solid PSA!

what about the woman that fell into an elevator?
BeeStingsAndHoney
That was pretty intense. But seriously, so many people are getting hit by cars these days, please look up.
QuackDodgers
So many drunk drivers in the comments

If I have to text while walking I become hyper vigilant and spot check every other second. Driving on the other hand is just a bad idea.

This is a new communist trick called phone-trapping. It culls the lower 30% of the IQ spectrum.

The only time i've ever done something like this was when I was walking while reading a book, ironically enough.

You've gotta feel like such a twat after walking into something while texting. Nobody can look cool doing it

Omg is that girl Ok? Is that accident real? :(

Some of the people who survive their own stupidity advocate against that thing. She probably gave permission or even encouraged it.

If it wasn't real then it was really well done, but it's also a case of who has a camera looking at them in their car?

I imagine she's OK. It's highly doubtful they'd use it in a commercial like this otherwise.

i honestly don't get why people text and drive in the first place. like seriously, how important is it that you risk your life and others?

I honestly don't understand running into things while texting. Do people really have that little focus?
squirrelfartsy
Yes
Ehh, the mindset that you can do it perfectly fine when in reality it's just as dangerous for you to do it is a pretty slippery slope
JRedBear
Worked on a college campus and it was possible to sneak a fork lift up behind a person walking and texting.
awholelotofnothin
They're focusing too much on one complicated mental/physical task instead of the other. Which is why you don't play COD while you jump rope.
Well yeah. Cause both CoD and skipping require two hands. I could defihitely walk, play CoD and focus on the path. It's only three things.
Walking is a complex motor function that depends on visual spacial analysis and threat awareness. Multiple things = one action.
Texting - or call of duty - is a complex motor function that ALSO requires visual spacial analysis and intense attention to detail.
So unless you're a chameleon or seriously wall-eyed, or have super-human peripheral vision - your eyes physically can't do what you claim.
sure they can, 's not like I'd be wearing a VR head set, I'd still be able so see around the screen. Like with texting, it's real easy.

Horses can poop while they walk

The worst part about it is the guy makes it all inspiring and boring and takes the fun out of it with too much talking.
it's fine actually, mostly talking and a couple of pictures which are a little graphic (nothing like usersub graphic though).
