How about just dont

RLPT (and also the lawful behavior in most countries): don't look at your phone while behind the wheel.

If you live in one of the few jurisdictions where looking at your phone is legal while driving, get a dash mount for it, because touching your phone while driving is likely still illegal.

And make sure the dash mount is positioned where the phone doesn’t obstruct your view of the outside, but is as close to the hood horizon as possible.

There is a reason I used the word “if” here folks. Of course it’s best to not look at your phone behind the wheel at all but it happens allllll the time and this is at least an improvement

All you're concerned with noticing is the light, not if a pedestrian is crossing?

If you are driving in a car

#DO NOT LOOK AT PHONE

LPT: use driving as an opportunity to get off the phone once in a fuckin while. You don't have to fill every idle moment of your life with phones.

Is someone sends a text, that means they can wait and you don't have to answer right away. If someone calls, use bluetooth.

Seriously... don't diddle on your phone while in traffic!!!!

Okay, cop.

Here's an idea. Don't look at your phone while driving at all.

And then a convenient cop comes about….

No beets were harmed in this study.

if

If you would have just read the sidebar.

Now that was a good use of the word if.

Or you know, don't look at your fucking phone while driving.

dont forget to show the police man in the lane next to yours what kind of phone it is too. so they can ticket you for being a fucking idiot

Lmao stole the words out of my keyboard

LPT: Don't use your fucking phone while driving whatsoever

I was just beside a woman in interstate traffic.

I started calling her Ms. Swervy. She was all over the damn road. Almost side-swiped several vehicles.

Just a matter of time before she's in a bad accident.

GET OFF YOUR DAMN PHONE!

This is the correct LPT

Nice try officer

And you'll get yourself a ticket

Safety tip...don't look at your phones while driving. Nothing is that important to risk the safety of others. If it is that important, do other drivers a favor and pull off the road and take your call.

YOU WILL GET A TICKET FOR DOING THIS. DO NOT DO THIS.

What a shitty LPT

Nah. Dumb LPT. You lose.

Or do what I do an oscillate your head between your phone and the light violently every .5 seconds to make sure you don’t miss it

Put the phone away you psycho 😅🤣
