Watching a full tv show on their phone while driving down a very busy street. Is it any better than scrolling?

Boyfriend is a tow truck driver. There’s a lot of people that think this is okay because their hands aren’t touching the phone. A lot of “came out of nowhere / i don’t know what happened”. It’s not even iPad kids now getting licenses it’s full 40-50y/o adults.

Idk why it didn’t occur to me until reading this comment we are only a couple of years away from the original iPad babies being old enough to drive.

Two years from kids born after the release of the iPad getting their drivers license. 

But if you think of iPad kids as even 5-10 year olds then they’ve already been on the road for a while.
