That light having two lanes,

I move my car an inch or two,
The texting idiot then notices my car move.
I've seriously only came across this perfect storm about 3 times since the distracted driving laws came into place, each time the distracted driver only lurched forward about 3-5 feet. Not speeding into traffic or a pedestrian.
2 of the 3 times, they look around, then at me all confused and I just kinda laugh at them. Then they hang their head in shame and actually pay attention to their surroundings. The other time, they just pretended nothing happened and played "blind".

And what happens the 4th time? They stomp on the gas and into traffic or a pedestrian?
It's stupid and it's dangerous. There's no reasoning your way out of that. I'd much rather be on the road with people who text while stopped at a light then with people who pull stuff like this.
