    Here is my point.Where i live in Maine, it is a seasonal coastal tourist town . Outside my home is a one way street. Clearly marked in road markings, signs and if there are parked cars all pointing in one direction! ( Theres a huge hint for you people who drive and dont pay attention.) If you are an automatic driver and dont pay attention while driving then you need to retake your driving test.. Do you really think this will stop people being selfish tools?

    Oh so only people with a brand new top of the line electric Mercedes, Fisker or Rivian would be able to take part. Very useful for the other 99.99%

    2:06 That alert is great, if you're not drunk or high (or on a suicide mission) and are simply disoriented or distracted. The phone alert (like the Amber) seems to alert the potential victims to pull over; as long as the proximity is far enough to give driver's a chance to. 🤷‍♀️🤔

    Oh GREAT. Then people will crash reading their cell phone.
    What about people like me that will never touch their phones when driving?

    British Accent: oh dear, oh bother, you’ve seem to gone the wrong way
    Yeah I’m not sure that resonates with American wrong way teen drivers.

    "CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, LORD GOD, I beg you to never force me to worship any false god and I ask you for forgiveness for my sins and immorality. Thank you for everything. Amen."
    Please pray this now, pray the words as you read them if you cannot look and remember them
    Please worship the CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSE, THE LORD GOD and try not to worry too much about the differences between the different religions and denominations, try to think about the similarities and the things they may have in common more than the differences. Daily prayer is a fundamental part that many people do not practice although it is encouraged🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
