Told bf i hope he crashes aita?

He has a disgusting habit of constantly being on his phone while driving. Not just texting & driving but literally watching football & constantly looking at his football fantasy shit. I keep talking to him about it & it's getting WORSE. He'll do it while me & OUR CHILD is in the car. I blew up & told him if he crashes & our child gets hurt im leaving & taking our son. & I'll tell the cops it was his fault for being on the phone. He said I'm not gonna crash xyz. & I told him you know what I hope you do. When nobody else is in the car bc maybe then you'll realize you have a fucking problem. How hard is it to put your freaking phone down. Im constantly telling him I don't feel safe when in the car with him & I get really bad anxiety worried that somethings going to happen to us bc he's selfish putting whatever is on his phone before us. I promised the next time he stares on his phone im snatching it & throwing it out the window as hard & far as I can I literally don't care. I don't even know how many time he'll be on his phone & the light turns green & we just sit there. I don't say anything bc when I do he acts like he knew & about to drive. So I just wait till a car honks at him. Then he goes why didn't you say anything like motherfucker you're supposed to be paying attention I shouldn't have to say anything. & when I do it's a problem. If he crashed & swore up & down he wasn't on his phone I wouldn't even believe him. He looks down while he drives & sometimes swerves or has to stomp on the breaks. I told him I don't want our son in the car with him anymore & will use ubers to take him to school & anywhere else I need to go. Seriously thinking of breaking up atp that's how fed up I feel. I tell you I don't feel safe & & you don't gaf. Only about whatever is on that stupid phone. Honestly idc if I'm the asshole or if that is a shitty thing to say bc play stupid games win stupid prizes. If he wants to put his life at risk be my fucking guest. But don't you do that to me or your fucking kid.

Find other means of transport

I wouldn't go in his car and defoo not with a child. Like @Dee said find another means of transportation. And if you fancy being really devious I'd film him whilst he's on his phone driving and I'd call the police.

I wish there were stricter laws about people being on their phone while children are in the car. it is unfortunate how many people are addicted to their phones putting everyone’s life at risk on the road. I realize it’s probably an unpopular opinion but it’s just as bad as driving under the influence which is considered child endangerment so txting and driving and inappropriate phone use should be same.

@Sarah i agree 1000%

@Dee have a couple thousand saved for another car just need to save a little more. Until then ubers. But even after I'd have to take my son back & forth to school, Dr's appointments, speech therapy etc so basically everything it'll all be on me. Would you still stay? How do I get through to this man bc it seems impossible. I don't want be be a single parent in a relationship but I don't think my son is safe in the car with him. Last week I fac timed my son on his iPad & his dad was ofc on his phone getting honked at

It’s illegal to hold your phone while you drive in my state (Georgia) but yeah I wouldn’t get in the car with him anymore. If he wants to be in his phone so bad why doesn’t he let you drive instead? Or if it’s too much of a self control problem he could put his phone in the trunk or something while driving? Idk

@Maggie but if she pray he crash she maybe wanting to think careful about what she wishes for as the day could be devastating as she could be in the car when it happened.

Id be sneaky I'd have a friend tail him and keep an eye for him on his phone get a passenger to take a photo and report him to the police but that's just me
