Driving to work on the M1 this morning and the sky was amazing. The woman in a Mercedes in lane 3 obviously though so too as she was driving along in rush hour traffic taking photos of it. She had her phone upright, in portrait. How stupid do you have to be to not know you'd get a better photo with it in landscape orientation?
Maybe she needed a new wallpaper on her phone, the stupid bitch.
Should've taken a photo of her and sent it to the police
Reminds me of a woman doing a facetime call on the M80 in the evening rush hour
A person is smart.
People are dumb, panicky dangerous animals.

About average really
Of course none of us are stupid enough to be unaware of Director of Public Prosecutions v Barreto (2019).
Though obvs that doesn't mean it's a smart idea, or totally legal, to snap away at the sunrise while "making progress"
some people just need a high five...in the face...with a chair
How sexist are STWers ?
Never forget that half the people you meet are less than average intelligence

... but but they are "multitasking" with mobile phone while driving ...

Did he say that when looking at big paper map, placed/slammed down on the hood of a truck, while jabbing his index finger at it.

You sure she wasn't using the front facing camera to check makeup ?

Meetings; none of us is as dumb as all of us
I got it Mr P.

That's a "high four."
I got it Mr P.
The sunrise? Post it up
Taking photos of a landscape in portrait is remarkably stupid, yes.
Instagram is best used in portrait, tis you dat is stoopid.
I tried to hire a landscape gardener once. He said he couldn't help me cos my garden was ...oh, you got it already.
I tried to hire an uphill gardener once.
Is lane 3 the fast lane or the slow lane?
It's the German rep wagon lane.

"There is also a related offence (although it carries fewer penalty points) of not being in control of a motor vehicle."
Shit! I'm currently not in control of a motor vehicle.
Can anyone provide a watertight alibi for me?

Think of a level of stupidity, then worse than that!

I work with someone who was amazed when I pointed out to them that half the population are below average when it comes to intelligence.
Some people are happy to assume that the distribution of intelligence is symmetrical (or loaded towards the lower end) and that half of people will have below average intelligence 😉
(Or answer the question, do you have an above or below average number of legs (Edit - for a human)? And are how about the people you know. I bet most of them also have above the average number).

What sort of average for you have in mind?

Of course it is. (Rolls eyes)
See, you've missed half of that tree, you nugget!

Gotta love folk demonstrating a misunderstanding regarding statistics at the same time entering into a intelligence dick waving thread!

Would’ve looked better in landscape to be fair. More landscape(y) innit
TBF you can post to insta and Facebook more easily in portrait. No point starting a task and not finishing it.

Baretto just means that a prosecution under s41d(b) must show an interactive communication function (which may or may not have been the case here).
The high court were pretty clear that they see filming whilst driving as likely to be at least careless driving and possibly dangerous driving. That’s 3-9 pts or an automatic ban respectively. In any case, where penalty points can apply (including the “lesser” 41d(a) offence or C&U provisions that might be broken by displaying moving images in sight of the driver) the sentencing judge has the option of imposing discretionary disqualification.
Thanks for clearing that up. I can now go about my day without the fear of being sent to prison by a military court for a crime I didn't commit.

Just go and wait in the queue for self-service passport gates then you will see how thick most people are.

Dunno I’d actually say they’re not designed that well especially if you wear glasses and are really shortsighted.

Remember only half are less than average intelligence.
So similar to a couple of the votes.
