Today, I was driving on the freeway when I get a call from my friend explaining that our two best friends died in a car accident. I pulled over in hysterics and a cop came to see what was wrong. I explained what happened and he gave me a ticket for talking on the phone while driving. FML

Take the ticket into court & yell at them. I'm sure they'll be on your side & won't make you pay. That cop is a dick. I'm sorry, by the way. Please try & be strong. You'll be in my prayers.

While I'm very sorry to hear about such a loss, I feel the need to remind you that many people die each year in car accidents caused by the driver not paying attention, namely while texting/talking on the phone. Talking on the phone or texting is one of THE most dangerous things you can do while driving... in fact, studies have shown that you may even be better off driving drunk. Talking on the phone while driving puts others' lives in serious danger, so you definitely should have pulled over to take the call. Again, I'm sorry to hear about your loss, but what you did while driving was VERY dangerous to yourself and the others around you.

Being on the cell phone while driving is EXTREMELY dangerous. Shitty driver or not, NO ONE can have their full attention on the road while being on the phone. No one. Not even the best, most experienced driver. I have zero tolerance for people who find the need to do ANYTHING while driving other than drive... talk on the phone, text, do makeup, eat, drink, smoke, etc. While you're driving you should be DRIVING, not doing other stuff.
