So I've decided I'm going to start a new trend and you guys should help me make it popular across America. I'm going to start keeping a few eggs in my passenger seat at all times. And anytime I see someone screwing around on their phone while driving, SPLAT mother fucker!!! Eventually, people will get the hint, like "shit, I'm tired of always cleaning egg off my car because someone caught me acting like a twat." So what sayeth the beeb? You in?
I want an automatic weapon that shots eggs in a rapid fashion, with a huge cartridge that holds dozens of egg cartons that hold 12 eggs each.
So someone who is guilty of distracted driving is going to be made aware of it by another distracted driver?
Problem with that idea is most people are too selfish to realize they're making a mistake and breaking laws. All you'll get if anything is the phone using bonehead now doing an angry tweet or fb rant bout the asshole that egged their car for no reason. I'm in on the idea tho!!
I don't see how this could possibly result in someone getting shot within the first month of this new "trend." Nah, could never happen in such a reasonable society.
i know an old timer that used to keep a little baggy tied to their triple clamp full of batteries or 12mm wrenches for special occasions, but hey... maybe you could throw pillows or marshmallows or something...
Its a felony in most states to throw objects (including an egg) out of your vehicle with intent to strike another vehicle/persons.
right until the distracted driver pummels a motorcyclist or bicyclist... its at least a moving violation which could qualify as careless driving. Not quite reckless...
Up until they commit a criminal offense with their distracted driving, it is still a civil offense and as a citizen, it does not give you the right to commit a criminal offense as an act of vigilante justice. I'm just giving a warning, you throw an egg at someone on their phone, they call the police and you wind up in jail with a felony. Distracted driver goes on their merry way still driving around with their cell phone in their face.
Not that anyone would get distracted and crash while preparing to throw an egg at another car. That would be the ultimate irony. But if you're going to do it just make sure you roll the window down before you throw.
