One night last year I was out snowblowing the driveway. It was quite
late at night. I live on a dark country road. A car booting along. The
guy was speeding and had the interior lights on so that he could text
while driving, though I just caught a brief glimpse of it because he had
only cleaned a little bit of the snow and ice off his windshield and
side windows.
