    Badly shopped next

    • dannysauer says:

      Anyone who takes the time to put in the reflection of the back of the keyboard on the steering wheel spokes and *possibly* on the shift knob isn’t “badly” photoshop-ing anything. The shadow under the phone matches the shadow on the seat, as well as the bend in the steering wheel cover where the corner shoves in, so someone did a pretty good job.

      And why would they use the keyboard out of an old junk laptop for their Photoshop job, rather than, say, a real bluetooth keyboard?

      • adfogg says:

        Don’t you know that everything on every site on the internet is Photoshopped?

        • Vickie says:

          I know that when I Photoshop things, I would much rather spend 2 hours looking for images and doing the actual photoshopping, rather than sticking my phone and keyboard on my steering wheel. (with duct tape!!)
          I enjoy the challenge!! I even photoshopped my reply to this post.

          • a duck with no hat says:

            photoshopped or not, this is someones wet dream. some people cant manage 5 seconds without looking at facebook and driving gets in the way of this. not that it stops most people, a quick look at failbook proves this. but one day there will be a huge crash becasue someone was on facebook behind the wheel and he will update his facebook to say he’s crashed and killed someone before checking if he’s bleeding.

        • TheAntiCat says:

          Thank you adfogg. People just don’t get do they? (No one knows this either: The Cheezburger Network is the Matrix!)

      • ombre33 says:

        That actually is a real bluetooth keyboard. I own the very same make. Mind you, mine’s not attached to a steering wheel, though…

  2. Fluffy says:

    I drive behind this guy all the time. He’s usually steering with his knees.

  3. carbo says:

    HTC FTW \o/

  4. duelmen3 says:

    Giving Speed Racer and the Mach5 a run for the money. Try the 5 button!

  5. b. says:

    And the car’s a stick shift! Um…I don’t think he/she will be driving for long…jail time or a serious wreck will take care of that.

    • NikkiD says:

      Considering thats a brittish car (Well very likely atleast, could be a few others.) and just driving while talking on the phone is a pretty serious offense there… yhea, someone is in deep trouble.

  6. floven1 says:

    greetings programs.
    let me show you my interface…

  7. Seuss says:

    I wonder if he ever gets confused when he goes to put the key in the ignition. I mean, he has so many keys to choose from!

  8. Thadius says:

    “Turn on the autopilot, HAL.”
    “I’m sorry, Dave. I’m afraid I can’t do that. Do be mindful of the car behind you.”
    “AAAAH! HAL! TURN ON THE AUTOPILOT!”

  9. Dano says:

    I’m glad it’s right-hand drive, since that means I likely won’t be sharing the road with this nutjob!

    • bob_super says:

      I’ve seen that exact same wheel cover and shift lock in Taiwan, but they drive on the right. So I’d guess Japan.
      Considering how they drive in most Asian cities, you can be sure a distracted driver won’t share the road long.

    • Alleycat says:

      Mail carriers in the US drive right-hand drives.

  10. keithybabes says:

    The car’s specially adapted for drivers who’ve only learned to drive using Midtown Madness.

  11. mike says:

    Seems they got Photoshop up and running on that phone.

  12. bestoffates says:

    Is it worrisome my first thought was “It doesn’t look like that keyboard is attached well”?

  13. JB says:

    “What officer? Was I texting too fast?”

  14. bob_super says:

    It’s an improvement on OnStar. In case of accident, your facebook status gets automatically updated to jkuh alreiuthtgaheruls.,m

  15. Big Al says:

    Man killed by space bar after airbag deployment…film at 11:00.

  16. Dogmeat says:

    Judge: “The defendant has been charged with operating a vehicle while simultaneously sending electronic messages by cell phone, resulting in an accident involving seventeen other drivers. The defendant has also chosen to represent himself in this case. How do you plead?”
    Defendant: “omg! imho, ur honor, i m srsly not guilty!”

    • bob_super says:

      If the accident caused the airbag to deploy, the defendant will talk like that by lack of teeth or a jaw. If it was a guy, then he’ll also answer in a fairly high pitch.

      • Fanboy Wife says:

        Unfortunately for the defendant, the prosecuting attorney used his Facebook page as evidence. Perhaps he shouldn’t have posted his confession in his notes and tagged all of his friends.

      • Anna Rexia says:

        LOLspeak recognition fail.

        • bob_super says:

          Yes I’m that dumb, obviously. I would never compare “lolspeak” to speaking with a broken jaw. I must have just tried to repeat what the previous poster had said since I couldn’t figure it out, that explain my post so much better.

  17. NM says:

    If the airbag goes off the driver gets impaled with his or her keyboard, resulting in a bad case of Fghdjsklas-itis, and a few broken ribs.

  18. Grantski says:

    Silly Microsoft. Using the keyboard to drive = bad idea. I can hear the 911 call now: “HELP!” “Sir, what’s wrong?” “I cant stop my car, the brake key is stuck!”

  19. TimmyRay says:

    Use the WASD keys to steer.
    Space to Hand Brake.
    Up/Down to shift.

    Got it? Good luck.

  20. kc/cc says:

    Is there an eject key? I think I’d kind of want one.

  21. bob_super says:

    Twitter update “Just crashed again, ctrl-alt-del useless”

  22. TexasDan says:

    Brings new meaning to BSOD.

  23. docboy209 says:

    To all of those saying it’s photoshopped, I think you’re wrong. Look at the way the pleather cover is wrapped over the bottom right corner of the keyboard and over the whole top of the phone. I don’t think it’s a “permanent” mounting though, probably just put it there for the picture.

  24. Blackmoore says:

    and it automatically twitters which way I turn, and the gps location of my car!

  25. Sarge says:

    NOTE TO IDIOTS: A Keyboard is not a hands-free device, even if it’s Bluetooth!

  26. lostmac says:

    Vehicular homicide: There’s an app for that!

  27. Alleycat says:

    Good evening Sir, my name is Steve. I come from a rough area. I used to be addicted to Crackberry but now I am off it and trying to stay clean. That is why I am selling magazine subscriptions.

  28. Rollyn01 says:

    “I thought that as long as I had my hands on the wheel, I’d be alright officer.”

    • NM says:

      Oh, so now we can surmise that a drunken lawyer is behind the wheel. Well, getting behind the wheel IS assumption of the risk at its best, right?

  29. SavageParrot says:

    If you hit escape it launches you out of the top of the car and into safety, or rather it would if anyone had bothered to cut a hole in the roof. As there is no hole yet pressing escape actually just fires the rocket under your seat and jams you into the elegant velour of the cars roof panel and attacks your crotch with a jet of hot flame also setting fire to the shag-pile carpet and melting your shoes to the accelerator causing you to accelerate wildly out of control and drive into a swimming pool. I don’t recommend it.

    password to start car is zoomzoom

  31. just says:

    unbelievable. wtf.

  32. C says:

    Somehow, this made me lose the game.

  33. James says:

    If this is legit….this guy OWNS!!!!

  34. Chun says:

    If the airbag goes off, you’ll be able to do tongue dialing and “YTREWQ” will be embossed on your forehead.

  35. Aske says:

    Men in Black anyone?

  36. I_see_pregnancy says:

    ‘…I roll to check for oncoming cars…’

  37. JorickHorn says:

    people who text while driving make me sick.

  38. kclark223 says:

    Ironically, I got to this pic from facebook.

  39. a says:

    Eat your heart out KITT!
