TURNINGLEFTWITHONEHANDHOLDINGPHONE and other onsteering wheel. - 11/2/12 5:32 P.M. --This image was taken with a cell phone -- Not a safe practice! As we were stopped traffic signal at intersection of Lamar 6th heading north we noticed driver with left hand on steering wheel and right hand holding a cell phone. The driver is turning left toward south Lamar in rush hour traffic. Have you ever noticed how many drivers are using their hand held cell phones while driving? Here is photographic evidence. Zoom in and you will see her holding her cell phone in her right hand and driving with her left hand/arm?

Village library voting place about sundown - We were testing smugmug app for the first time to transmit image direct to smugmug galley  from cell phone.  ..It worked and by using library hot spot it was forwarded to smugmug with cellphone that was disconnected from cell provider..<br />
Hmm? Do we really need Verizon?

I35 TRAFFIC ON SATURDAY..Note the wide gap in front of us?  Notice that we are in right hand turn lane about to exit soon.  What would you bet that the drivers in that lane will squeeze in the trough traffic lane before the driver has to exit?  What is the problem with drivers who cannot stay tn the through traffic lane like eveyrone else?
  • GapInI35Traffic heading north..must be since it is Saturday?
  • Whatagap in the traffic on I-35!
  • WhatIsWrongWithThisImage?  what is wrong with this image?<br />

Answer: There is a cloud overhead!. Question is should the shadow be lightened up or leave image untouched edit
  • Where are we?  well, smugmug provides no metadata but the original image  showed 11/2/12 at 5:59pm.  Let me think..that was Friday afternoon driving North on Lamar.  Off in the distance is the traffic signal before 26th street.  Of course you are aware how traffic is on I35 and Mopac?
  • LamarNear34thST. Notice the gap in front of us and bumper to bumper just ahead all heading north near the gun shop off the to right.

  • CyclistAtGasStationExit  Do you feel sorry for the vehicles leaving the gas station?  They have to wait for the cyclist to approach their lane --whatever that is--One of these days we will be able to get a photo of those guys turning left.  (We are heading North on South Congress approaching overpass at Ben White Blvd.  Yes we are making a point to avoid I35 and Mopac (metadata 11/2/12 @12:34 pm.) At least we documented the price of gasoline on that day.
  • BROWNSPOTINTHESKY: 11/2/12 12:33 PM. Driving South on Congress near St. Edwards.  What is that brown spot in the sky?  Did we inadvertently take a photo of a flying saucer?  When zooming in on that spot, I do not see a power line..as you would expect this to be one of those golden globes on power lines...
  • <h1>Driving on Shoulder:</h1>
<em>WhatShoulder?</em> 10/29/12 @7:02 PM. --<b>This image was taken with a cell phone --
Do you see what that pickup driver is doing? Recently police ticked drivers on 2222/620 for doing just that.  So is driving on the shoulder illegal?  <em>Yup!</em>  (FYI: This line of cars is backed up on E. Parmer Ln & Daussau Road as we were heading back home after a round of golf at ShadowGlen.)<br>  Question that pops into our head is, <br />Why is this driver in such a hurry that he cannot wait to take the proper lane?  <br />Does he actually realize that he is not in the left turn lane?<br />  These questions pop into your head when you see this happen.</b>
  • MAYICHANGELANES?  10:27 AT 2:13 PM  While  heading East on Palmar Land and Mopac overpass this guy decided he needed to turn left at the next traffic signal.  Of course we let him in.  Hmm! I wonder if we tried that would the other guy let us  in?  Tell me - did the driver make a late decision to get into left turn lane, lack of attention or was the line behind us too long for the driver to get into the queue to turn left, or  is this guy new to  Austin!
