Putting on your make-up while driving. Okay, raise your hands if you do this. In California, we have a law that was passed last year that you can't drive your car while you are talking on your phone. So, we have a bunch of people with speaker phones in their cars and bluetooth. That's great. But why is there no law against people putting on their make-up while driving. I would think it is much more dangerous.
Think about it. While you are driving and have a phone in your hand, at least you are looking at the road. You may not be concentrating on how your driving or others around you, but you are looking at the road, probably. (How talking on a speaker phone will make you concentrate more on your driving is still a mystery to me) But what in the world are you looking at while putting on your make-up. Most of the people are looking at themselves in the rear view mirror. So at best, you are driving with your peripheral vision out of ONE EYE!! In what world can this be safe. And not only are you watching the road with one eye out of your peripheral, but you are trying not to poke yourself in the eye while putting on your make-up, so you are not concentrating on the road at all!! Who thought this was a good idea. And why is there no law in preventing this???
How many times have you been putting on your make-up and find yourself almost crash into the car ahead of you or swerve into another lane, just to narrowly miss another car. Then tell yourself that you would never do that again, only to find yourself one week later putting on your make-up while driving again.
Let's think people...most of us our not good drivers to begin with, even though most people think they are. Let's not fuel the fire with putting on your make-up while driving. Have a great day!!
