10 Things You Should NOT Do With Pokémon GO

5. Walk Around Blindly

It's only a matter of time before accidents happen. The last thing any driver wants is to scrape the remains of some clumsy prat off their bonnet.

Sticking your phone out and plodding around is dumb enough, and countless people fall victim to this problem these days. Ever bumped into someone with their eyes glued to their phones or tablets? Very rude.

Thing is, it's not just cars that you might find yourself crashing into. There's the chance of bumping into crowds of people, whom of which won't take it kindly, quite so if they don't play the game.

There's also the possibility of wandering into a construction site, walking on girders that slowly lift you up and conveniently arrive at a platform in the air just as you're about to walk off, just like in a cartoon. Except just as you've unknowingly gone through it all, miraculously unscathed, you trip over and scratch your knee.

And then you might fall into a muddy puddle, which would be most unlucky. Pokémon hunters have to keep images up, after all. Keep an eye out where you're going, and beware of the many risks that surround you. Chasing 'em in more spacious, open areas without traffic zipping around is also a wise idea.
