California Bans Driving and Talking without a Hands-Free Set


text and drive

According to TechDirt, California has approved a law that will ban driving and using a cellphone without using a hands-free set. Now they are already working on a followup to ban texting while driving. Why end it there? And certainly I agree with them. People need to concentrate on driving when they are driving – not trying to read a map, texting, or even browsing their email from their iPhone. Washington’s already banned texting while driving back in May of last year. I hope that other states will follow suite. People, let’s drive while driving. Let’s not be doing other things while guiding a huge hunk of metal down the road as it could get pretty nasty.

Yes, extraneous cell phone usage is rampant, and it’s frequently not to difficult to pick out drivers doing that by virtue of their erratic driving. I’m not sure what everyone needs to communicate incessantly about, but I doubt it has to do with walking someone through surgery, and quite possibly falls more in the category of instantaneous informational gratification.

This has been banned in the UK for quite a long time…heck, handsfree headset is fine…as long as you’re not fiddling with it while driving, you can get pulled over for not having both hands on the steering wheel.
