There is an app out there "Waze" which in addition to being a Navigation app for your phone, also allows you to see traffic conditions around you and post updates on traffic conditions you encounter.
Some co-workers and I were picked up by a fellow employee at the airport a few months back. There was some heavy traffic after leaving the airport and our driver decided he would update that info on Waze. Apparently you get points for posting updates even if a bazillion other users also post the same info. As he was updating Waze WHILE MOVING, he lightly rear-ended the car in front of us. We were unharmed as it was just a tap but it caused enough cosmetic damage that the driver in front wanted to report it. I guess numerous other Waze users then subsequently started posting updates about us idiots clogging a lane due to this nonsense.
Just stupid....
