Car Cellphone Bans Driving Bluetooth

jmatheny14 noted that the BBC is running an article about an unexpected side effect of car cellphone bans. It says"Legislation banning the use of mobile phones in cars is spurring car manufactures to look for alternatives such as Bluetooth." and "Because it can be used with a hands-free headset that can connect to a mobile phone even if the device is some distance away, it could be a perfect way to get around the ban."

Cuz people are yuppy idiot drivers already. Giving them another way to not drive well is just insane!

I swear I should go out with a video cam sometime. Would be fun to show around...

In case your curious I live in the middle of a stupid middle class city where everyone is a soccer mommy or daddy driving either suv's or minivans as if compact cars are satans work. They all roll through stops, never check before changing lanes and generally speed.

Then these are the people that gripe over their little timmy getting creamed by a 100km/h mom-mobile.... talk about hypocracy!
