It's a car, not a phone booth. Get off the fucking phone or if you are on a call use a hands-free thing.

>New data involving distracted driving in Colorado shows a concerning trend. Since the Hands-Free law in Colorado was implemented on Jan. 1, the state of Colorado has issued 94 citations to drivers who were pulled over for using their cell phones or mobile devices while behind the wheel.
The Colorado Department of Transportation says this is more than half of the total number of citations issued in 2024.
CDOT says this accounts for a 135% increase in citations when compared to this same time period last year. The department says the highest number so far this year is in Jefferson, El Paso, Weld, Douglas, and Adams counties. When compared to the last three years with Colorado drivers' phone use, it includes 77% in 2024, 75% in 2023, and 68% in 2022.
