One wonders if many of the drivers spotted texting while driving daily on Bahrain’s highways and back lanes realise the danger they put other people and themselves in?
Every day, I glimpse literally dozens of drivers looking constantly down at their phones while driving at nearly 100kmph on the highways – or on small, congested lanes in congested neighbourhoods.
They don’t seem to grasp the notion that the vehicle they are in could cause a fatal accident while they try to message, or reply to, someone .
