The man behind me honked at me for going 70 in a 50, so now we're going 20 together.
I hope he packed a lunch.

  1. The phone is clearly mounted on the dashboard.

  2. It's not uncommon for people to record their whole trip for social media, not just take to a picture.

  3. This caption could have been pasted over a completely unrelated screenshot of someone else's video for all we know.

Don't touch your phone while driving, but also, don't believe everything you see on social media.

    On your last point... It's still damaging because it normalises it. UK has very harsh stance on this and you'd get in shit even for point 1. There should be zero tolerance on this. They're a dickhead driver regardless. Two dickheads don't make it right.

    That's still a distraction. Even if they don't intend to upload the entire recording they are paying less attention to the road in order to pay attention to their "performance".
