For New Zealanders, No More Phones As Sat-Nav Devices

Posted by timothy on from the fine-distinctions dept.

    What are you, a retard?

    Pull the fuck over first. Turn off the ignition, and you can do whatever the shit you want in your car, including entering directions into your phone. Then put your phone on the hands-free kit. Then start the car and begin driving.

    Was this really a hard problem for you to solve? Please, GOD, tell me you don't have a driver's license.
