Ok budgie, yer sure makin yerself out to be awfy holy and an that so here we go
On the moot point issue. You mention busting drivers for having a hand at their ear and rightly so you bring em up it makes it valid. However you seem to forget that you should be in control so what difference is it to tell someone on the phone to shut up a minute while you hare it round the local version of copse to telling the wife to shut her face cos theres a yeti attacking the motor and you need to concemtrate. The sheer mention of having to tell her to shoosh might suggest you arent giving it 100% in the first. My my, how dare thee. You need a licence to do that dontcha know and your better half is potentially killing innocents by proxy all because she cannae handle some flakes without giving you the 3rd degree. Tsk tsk. The post is about concentration from what I can see, point stands.
Now, not am I for a second suggesting that you should feel the need to use a phone on a bike, however if you feel you need it then surely they should be aware enough to adjust their riding and not hare it round copse?
No?
I have used a phone on the bike as many others have, I also use it driving as well because my job needs me to be reachable. Funnily enough, I adjust to suit or stop no matter what vehicular media I'm using. I also listen to music and in fact actively encourage it. Theres plenty of studies done over the years that support the claims that music assists in FOCUSSING BETTER on a task.
Whodathunkit?
So to help ease your mind and set you onto a path of acceptance, love and tolerance I should just like to say that it can be done, people dodo it and it can be done with no ill effects on the majority of occasions. You should calm your mind with the knowledge that tthat's just the way and maybe even smoke a doobie or two. You'll thank me later
