I was almost run over by a driver at a crossing who was busy eating fries or something. She clearly didn't know or care to pay attention and drive accordingly. Given her speed i most likely would be dead or in a wheelchair if i hadn't stopped in the middle of the road. I will never forget the stupid expression on her face as she looked back up and didn't bother to slow down.

It doesn't matter the kind of distraction. If you dont have both hands free to operate your car and you have to look at anything except the road and mirrors, you are distracted and have no business of driving. This kind of behaviour should always lead to people getting stopped and at least made to walk the rest of the day, getting longer bans with repeated offenses.
