We thought cell phone use while driving was bad, what about this?


KETTERING, Ohio -- A Dayton, Ohio, mother faces charges for breast-feeding her daughter while driving her other children to school, television station WHIO reported.

Genine Compton was pulled over by Kettering police Thursday while taking her children to school.

Police said Compton could have injured her child and others because she was breast-feeding and talking on the cell phone while driving the vehicle.

Compton was issued citations for child endangerment and violating a child restraint law. Compton told the station, "If my child's hungry, I'm going to feed it."

Why oh why is there not a test for parenting?

Driving while feeding....

 

Twice Matt has seen the same woman knitting while she was driving!

 

M favorite bugaboo is reading while driving.
I'm not talking trying to read directions, I'm talking paperbook propped up on the steering wheel.

I've found people get really annoyed at you when you honk and tell em to put the book down and drive.

 

Well I'm thrilled she got pulled over, and got a ticket. I sure wish I saw more of that considering NY has had a hand's free law on the books for a long time, and I see people holding their phone every day.

Worst I ever say was folding laundry, while driving slow in the left lane of the expressway... The woman would pull clothing from the passenger's seat, drape it up and over the steering wheel in which she used as a folding table. Once foldesh would turn around and put it in a clothing basket on the rear seat. Driving slow in the left lane is bad enough, but this was just beyond.
