My close calls have all been pullouts right in front of me with the cage driver on the phone. One just the other day, a young lady pulled out right I front of me. Her cell phone to her left ear blocking her view in my direction. She pulled out and I passed on her passenger side. Boy was she suprised as I passed her. I am sure she had no idea how close it was.

No sense in yelling at her because she was clueless.

It's illegal to drive and talk on your cell phone in Michigan - and should be. However, no one pays attention to the law. How bad is it when you talk on your cell phone and walk into a light pole or a pane glass window?
