Giacconi reportedly told police that the sun had blinded him and he never saw Scarponi. During the negligent vehicular homicide investigation, however, he was said to admit to investigators that he was watching a video on his smartphone.

Err no. I didn’t want to get searched as I have a few times and it’s never felt like a nice thing.
Mentioned this at work and quite shocked a couple of people said they watch videos/podcasts while driving (on hands free) I’d say that’s way more dangerous but I am in the same boat and I got caught. Phone users while driving really make me mad and it only takes a second to fuck up. I’m going to treat it as a good reminder not to get my phone out while riding tbf
