That pissed me off.

Too bad, my state doesn't have law forbidding drivers from using phone while driving for people over 18.. Only under 18 are forbidden from using cell phone at all while driving.
Yes, been there. I have had close call with a woman talking on cellphone at the parking lot. Luckily, using my common sense. I looked ahead and saw her driving and look like she's not paying attention. I stopped my truck and sit there when I supposed to go thru. She drove past by me without stopping. Sheesh. If I went a head without stopping, she'll crashed on side of my truck.

This is unbelievable. It make no different whether hearing or deaf, they drive same tho.

When I got pulled over for speeding. When officers approached me at my driver's side, I motioned him pointing my ear and say "I'm deaf". He understood quickly and wrote me a note. He gave me warning ticket and told me slow down lol. In Olathe, KS, many officers signs because there are many deaf people living there plus Kansas School of the Deaf located there. Some of my friends were nabbed by Olathe cops for speeding and other things in the past. Olathe cops are treating deafie just like everyone else. They will not let them go free because they're deaf. Luckily, I don't live there lol.
