According to United Press International, some guy in a Toyota Corolla decided it would be a good idea to get some work done on his laptop as he drove to work.

End result: a multi-car accident in which he dies. Really makes me wonder if the guy behind me today was using his laptop or just reading, as I thought he was. I’m driving in to work this morning and can see that the guy behind me is glancing down every few seconds for about 10 seconds at a time. I suppose he’s reading the paper or something.

I don’t get it. How could you be so bored that you have to read on your way to work? Does dodging the idiots on the road not keep you busy enough? I have enough to keep my mind on dodging the people whipping across 3 lanes with no warning, the folks slamming on their brakes because they aren’t paying attention to the traffic ahead of them, the buffoons changing lanes every minute to try to avoid slowing down one mile per hour, the idiots trying to merge into my lane without looking, the morons slowing to 15 MPH under the speed limit because a state trooper is near.

How do you have time to read?!
