Yes but I have to think the greatest distraction to drivers is not paint on the road but the visual blight of attention-grabbing billboards and other advertising signs cluttering the roadways. I'm a free speech/free enterprise guy, but there have to be some sort of sensible limits put in place to reduce the nearly 40k road deaths ANNUALLY in the US alone.
Ironically the laws against using phones while driving make the use of phones while driving less safe.
Since everyone knows itās illegal to hold a phone while driving, they hold it down on their lap which means they are looking down at their lap instead of the road.
Before those laws were enacted, people would hold their phones at eye level so they could dial a phone number or send a text and keep their eyes on the road.
I have 5 friends/relatives that have been in accidents. All have had a phone on their ear at the time. Where your eyes are may be less crucial than what your mind is aware of.
What I have to back this up is, when you are looking for an address while driving, you turn your music down.
Your example of how distracting talking on the phone while driving can be probably also applies to phone calls on Bluetooth, eating while driving, etc.
Iām not saying itās safe to use a phone while driving. Iām just saying that ironically itās less safe because of human behavior Iāve observed in other drivers Iāve seen on the road in response to the laws making it illegal.
A technological solution that limits the use of phones to making an emergency call when moving faster than 5mph may be more effective at preventing accidents. Although Iām not advocating for that because there are other privacy implications and differentiating between drivers and passengers that need to be taken into consideration.
There's no shortage of dumbass white drivers these days but yeah the majority of easily avoidable accidents I see are with Drivers of Color who seem to not know the rules of the road at all. Illegals should not be able to get drivers licenses but too many states allow it and then with auto-registration for voting that is how many of the illegals keep ending up on the voter rolls (by design.)
The world over buddy. Just shows you how dipshit the "pride" crowd is, they're literally happy that their "flag" gets walked all over and driven on. That's what they feel like respect is from their elected representatives.
Freedom requires the complete eradication of support for, or pronotion of, any form of deviance whatsoever, whether public, private, acted, spoken, or thought. There can be no space for this monstrosity in our free world
It is possible that Our Leader may have to reveal what God has told Our Leader is deviant, and we must obey that revelation. I have no doubt that God's voice comes in Trumps ears regularly. But that does not make it his decision. It is not a decision of a mortal man.
You see them as our leaders. You are in your own prison. They are our servants. Do you understand, we the people want that shit removed. Somebody we gave authority to to deal with it is doing that.
Did you complain when a "leader" put them there against the will of the people??? Probably not.
why is there such confusion over simple and known terms and titles? lol. is this just a reflex?
Im pretty sure we agree on this point. But you don't know it..
Yes, I'd say that restoring rule by God, expressed through autocratic, God-Sanctioned leadership, expressed by Trump, and empowered in accordance with the NON-DEMOCRATIC traditions of the American New Republic, is a pretty good summary of what I would like to see happen.
The term Theocracy is, in its literal sense, a good description, but it's often used perjoratively (e.g. to describe Liberal countries like Iran or Saudi Arabia) so I am reluctant to adopt that term, though, at a technical level, it's what I want.
Saudi Arabia is not a liberal country.Ā It is anĀ absolute monarchyĀ with a deeply conservative and traditional culture heavily influenced byĀ Islamic law (Sharia).Ā
Iran is not a liberal country.Ā It is anĀ Islamic theocracyĀ with a political system based onĀ Shia Islam.Ā The country's government is led by a Supreme LeaderĀ
Liberals support Muslim immigration and support the implementation of Sharia Law worldwide
It is impossible to be conservative or traditional and Muslim. The only religion of conservative traditionalists is Christianity. Anything else is a contradiction in terms.
An Islamic theocracy is also a contradition in terms, because God does not support Islam. Like I say, that term is normally used pejoratively and not correctly.
Absolute monarchy or supreme leadership are liberal objectives- see, e.g. the USSR. They oppose the Republican, anti-Democratic traditions that are core to conservative principles.
So yeah, those are not theocracies. Satanocracies, maybe. They are probably the most liberal nations on earth.
Put all the rainbows you want on your private property. But you are wrong about this, they aren't leaders they are servants and it's our will they are carrying out. WE voted to have all this cultural dogs hit reversed.
Biggest win this year on this crap? GEOTUS forcing that fucking lesbo DC mayor to remove that abominable "BLACK LIVES MATTER" lettering on the "plaza" between the White House and a couple blocks north of there in the District. Muriel Bowser put up a lame-ass fight...but even SHE knew her dishonest, treasonous ass couldn't fight let alone sustain THAT bullshit in our nation's Capital city.
I agree with removing the political statements on state roads. But also to increase safety, remove illegal immigrant drivers and clot shots.

... and phones.
Today when someone in a car is looking down it is a phone. When I was a kid, it was reefer or cocaine.
And the phone is deadlier.

Very nice win. I didn't know the clowns were still doing that stupid shit.

a leader will decide what is deviant and we will obey.
God decides what is deviant, and we will obey.
It is possible that Our Leader may have to reveal what God has told Our Leader is deviant, and we must obey that revelation. I have no doubt that God's voice comes in Trumps ears regularly. But that does not make it his decision. It is not a decision of a mortal man.
Right. A theocracy. Where the leader gets messages from god and then reveals law that dictates acceptable personal behavior. I'm with you.
You see them as our leaders. You are in your own prison. They are our servants. Do you understand, we the people want that shit removed. Somebody we gave authority to to deal with it is doing that.

Trump is your servant?
Trump = POTUS = leader

You're fine.
Yes, those are all liberal principles:
So yeah, those are not theocracies. Satanocracies, maybe. They are probably the most liberal nations on earth.
Oh!
Put all the rainbows you want on your private property. But you are wrong about this, they aren't leaders they are servants and it's our will they are carrying out. WE voted to have all this cultural dogs hit reversed.
I think he's pulling your leg.
But FWIW I'd very much like to see the rainbow outlawed in private property too,
Demanding is not the same as mandating. Many governors will refuse to comply.
Step B is to cut off their hiway money.
Not many states are going to FAFO.
Then you go to the next stage...Plan B for the idiots.
Does it stary with Guano and end with Tanamo?

What constitutional authority does he have to "order" that?
He is Transportation Secretary.
It is called funding.
FAFO.
Itās about time. Good grief, nearly everyone is so sick of that crap
Yes, this is great news. I don't if Baltimore City, or Maryland for that matter has any of these at all. If they do they will be gone hopefully.
Boulderās gonna be pissed š
We need to enforce this more on municipal politicians.
End criminal charges for people that do burnouts on the fag flags painted in streets too.
It's my hot pavement, I'll do what I want
Cause they're gay
About time!
