Well now, of course, they’re gonna have to pass a law. One guy unable to stay on the road while jerking off to porno on his phone has to ruin things for everyone.

Do they even check if you can drive a stick?

I once attended a racing driving school. All they ever talked about was the importance of the pole position.

I remember years and years ago reading about an FAA accident report of a lightplane crash that killed both the pilot (male) and his passenger (female).

The report stated that “… it was obvious from the positions of the occupants that they had been engaged in oral sex at the time of the accident.”

\*\*\*Get your motor runnin’  
Head out on the highway  
Looking for adventure  
In whatever comes our way

Yeah, darlin’  
Gonna make it happen  
Take the world in a love embrace  
Fire all of your guns at once  
And explode into space\*\*\*

Don’t wear Levi’s 501s if you’re getting road head. Iffn you get pulled over, it’s MUCH easier to pull up one zipper as opposed to buttoning four buttons.

From the thread title, I thought you were contemplating jerking off until you die.

Sounds promising.

Yeah, cars handle a lot better if you use the steering wheel and not the joystick.

First cell phone usage while driving; next texting; and now masturbation? What is this world coming to?!

Thanks for the laugh, simster! All of you, really.

I know that the poor sap is dead, but these responses are priceless.

Masturbation has always been part of driving; what’s new is using the phone to access porn. That’s just greedy. Back in my day…

I’m totally aware of that, **Procrustus** , believe me. I was fishing for a funny response to the words, “coming to,” but I believe it was missed. 😛

And yes, it is greedy.

Well then he has _no excuse at all_, because once he achieved satisfaction he should have gotten his eyes back on the road.

So Mazda stops making Wankels and Toyota starts (even if for a very brief time).

_**I can’t get no satisfaction  
I can’t get no satisfaction  
‘Cause I try and I try and I try and I try  
I can’t get no, I can’t get no  
When I’m drivin’ in my car  
And that man comes on the radio  
And he’s tellin’ me more and more  
About some useless information  
Supposed to fire my imagination  
I can’t get no, oh no no no  
Hey hey hey, that’s what I say  
I can’t get no satisfaction  
I can’t get no satisfaction**_

props to the Stones…
