Zimbabwe wants cops to actually crack down on people messing with their phones behind the wheel after way too many crashes got blamed on distracted drivers. Deputy Minister Joshua Sacco and a bunch of transport stakeholders met up in Harare for a workshop thrown by the Traffic Safety Council and the telecom regulator, and they talked about how texting while driving basically wrecks everything because it pulls your eyes off the road and scrambles your brain at the same time.

Sacco pointed out that even though the roads themselves have gotten better under some national development plan, drivers still keep causing wrecks by scrolling through their devices instead of paying attention. The Zimbabwe Public Transport Organisation chairman mentioned that fatal accidents from phone use happen way too often, and everyone at the meeting agreed they need to push education plus enforcement to make the roads less deadly for regular people just trying to get around.
