If they just ban driving all together, they will eliminate ALL driving related deaths and injuries. There's nothing better than a government that knows what's best for us. I want to be protected from myself!

I agree that there is no difference in using a mobile with your hands or hands free. Its where your concentration is at which is the problem. Holding a phone is no worse than holding a drink or anything else. So either ban the lot, or let everyone use handheld phones again.

A story on ACA the other night shows its some bald headed muppet from Monash University thats trying to push this crap upon us. The footage showed was people trying to text and talk on the phone while trying to negotiate hazzards at 60kph.
The course looked like it was setup for failure, and in no way peplicated real life road situations. It was a stacked experiment. If I wonder if it is still ok for me to talk out loud when I answer the voices in my own head. |
