WTF is wrong with people now days????

COVINGTON, La. -- A rush-hour accident snarled traffic on Louisiana Highway 21 for about an hour as rescue workers extricated a woman from a car that flipped after slamming into the back of an SUV.


Investigators say 30-year-old Maria Impastato of Madisonville told officers Monday that she was applying makeup when her car slammed into the back of a Dodge Durango that had slowed to a stop on the highway.

Covington police spokesman Lieutenant Jack West says the crash caused the car to roll onto its passenger side, slide on the highway and then flip.

Firefighters pulled Impastato, who was upside down in her seat -- secured by her seat belt -- from the car.

Officers cited Impastato for careless operation.

I'm in my car almost all day and if you just look around you see women doing this all the time. Another thing to notice is people on cell phones what did they do before the mobile phone was invented?

Well they just stayed home, why you think gas was so cheap

I too drive a good bit for work and you really have to watch out for the other guy. I just love the ones the swerve in and out of traffic like they are on a track somewhere.
