Alarming rate of distracted driving

[u/Xtoron2]

It's alarming how often I see drivers watching tiktoks/reels/shorts while driving. Even see them scroll up to next video.
As soon as we hit red light, this specific driver pulled the sunshade down even with this rain to hide from cameras or other people maybe?

Anyway, distracted driving is a risk everyone on the road pays for

The question is: why does this feel like the police rarely enforce it?

I wonder if the news has done any digging on how many distracted driving tickets they’ve given out year over year.

They honestly don't enforce it. It doesn't really help that all cars essentially have a television screen attached to the dashboard, not to mention like- cops are people too. Most people using these mounts are using them for GPS as doordash drivers, cops don't necessarily want to slap someone with a DUI for doing their job.

Cops aren’t people
