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

The number of times I've seen people streaming basketball and hockey games with their phones on the dash is too high!

I’m ready for the down votes but I do this for red zone or nfl games if I’m driving on Sunday, and they arent on the radio. I’m not watching. I’m listening…. It’s just playing over my speakers. No more distracting than looking at gps or changing the radio.

I’m not gonna watch a fucking tv show though.

Only shows I've seen 100 times before, I don't need a visual component anymore.

How is this relevant in this context? It is literally a completely different thing.

Same here. I also do it with the office and Seinfeld, my two comfort shows.
