Throw the book at him

[SueEllen]

I've seen a motorist reading while driving. Nothing new there - unfortunately couldn't take a snap.

Left-hand drive import?

With a fake steering wheel and raised dash surround?

Possible I suppose.

His wife did - separate photo. Given to the rozzers.

But he took the first photo? Bit of double standards.

Article said his wife took both photos.

It's much easier to imagine that than having somebody actually drive his car on M6 whilst reading the paper...

Motorist snapped reading a book at 70mph - Telegraph

“He didn’t even notice me taking his picture and only looked across when we got alongside. I hope the Police catch him and throw the book at him.”

Obviously the driver is a complete twat. He should know to hold the book below door level so nobody can see it.

Yeah, you should at least keep your eyes on the road....

This is only going to get worse as more and more cars take on autonomous driving capability. The new S Class will hold itself in the lane and match speeds of the surrounding vehicles (including braking) It will also ensure that the car does not undertake other cars in built-up conditions...

thankfully driving conditions will improve as you take the herd of morons behind the wheel away from the controls.

Remember before Sat nav used to take a road atlas n read that....
