I hate that we aren’t allowed to make our own decisions. What’s next? You can’t eat in your car? That’s ‘unsafe’ too! ; )

I’m with you Ashleigh… I just need to hang up! ; )

You should try putting an elastic band or a couple pony tail holders around your driver side visor. Then you pull your visor into the down position, slip the phone under the elastic and voila! It is almost like having one of those bluetooth visor clip devices.

Oh I would be in trouble if they did that here.

I really need to just hang up.

Stupid lobbyists, convincing our law makers whats best for us so we can be forced into buying more of their stupid cell phone products.

In Utah they recently passed law saying that any children younger than 8, or until they are 4 feet 9 inches tall must ride on a booster seat. Them lobbyists have been trying hard to get Utah law makers to pass this since dinosaurs were around and now that they finally did, I made sure to buy stock of booster seat manufacturers or companies.

Hey, at least we can still put on make-up, eat a burger, look at a map, read and text while driving.Those are all MUCH safer;)

Hmmm. Well, I am happy about the law. Many careful drivers I know used bluetooth before the law came into effect. So what if you have to pay $39+ for a bluetooth headset? If it reduces the number of crazy people driving with one hand because the other hand is holding their cell phone, so be it. I know someone who was plowed down by a distracted driver… totally preventable.

But yes, by all means, do test out the speakerphone feature of your new phone if you plan to forego a bluetooth adaptor. As frugal as I am, I draw the line at skimping when it comes to safety.
