This happened in Scotland on the M8 motorway near Eurocentral junction at 4:45 PM this past Thursday. Here is what happened, as per the person who took the photo (who was sitting in the passenger seat of another car, by the way):

“I was in the passenger seat as we passed this guy who was doing 65mph. I looked down and couldn’t believe my eyes. He was sitting playing the Real Racing game on his iPad and glancing up at the road every now and then. I have never seen anything like it, it was ­terrifying to watch. The guy looked to be in his mid-20s. He saw me looking at him and was waving at me but when I tried to take a picture of his face he turned away behind the seat. At one point he ­undertook us still playing the game on the iPad. If the guy keeps carrying on like this, he is going to kill himself or someone else, for sure. He needs a wake-up call. The fact that he was playing a car racing game made it all the more ­unbelievable. Could he not have been content just to do the real thing safely?”

What a moron.
