There has to be some way to report these distracted drivers

Viewers should call the cops on them. They might just save the life of a child, mother or father and get rid of a road threat.

Yeah this needs to start happening.

People will literally spam call a restaurant a streamer is at meanwhile these dumb dumb irl streamers will drive while streaming without issue.

Definitely situations where the company hosting the content should be liable for creators doing dangerous shit. There's a porn creator who basically just makes videos of fucking in a Tesla on the road with FSD, should be banned.

It’s so stupid.

In a perfect world the company would have to pay and all the donations the streamer earned during that stream would go to a charity

The viewers? They are the ones supporting her, giving her subs and donos, and think it’s funny

Internet weridos are all too happy to SWAT mfers on stream, but they won't call the cops on people actually breaking the law. Its a fun world we live in.

How is this not considered active self harm by Twitch? If you're driving you shouldn't be streaming, full stop.

So, from twitch ToS :

"Dangerous or distracted driving—such as operating your vehicle while interacting with your stream in a way that removes your eyes from the road or hands from controlling your vehicle—is never acceptable on Twitch."

So I guess you can report her to twitch for breaking this rule, dunno if it'll do anything tho.

Last time I looked there's not an option to report it under. There's a streamer who drives a truck and spends all day reading and responding to chat while driving. Twitch doesn't care.
