The Bluetooth hands-free feature of our vehicle has decided to give up the ghost, now that the Distracted Driving laws here in Alberta are getting some attention for not being severe or stiff enough. Wonderful...
Much as I despise those Buck Rogers earpiece hands-free devices, we broke down and bought one this weekend as a quick fix, until we can figure out what the problem is. I don't look forward to having to go to Starbucks now, and listen to jazz cds as I drive around, but what can you do? I also don't want a hefty fine.
Personally, I'm not a fan of idiots that are texting or reading emails while they drive, so I support as tough a law as we need to convince people to pay attention behind the wheel. Besides, how can you possibly drink a coffee, eat a breakfast sandwich, read your morning newspaper, surf the radio stations and do a bit of yoga and zen meditation if you're on the phone??
Priorities, people!!
later....

Totally agree Mr.! Every time I wonder what the hell a driver is doing, sure as shooting I get the opportunity to pass and yup, they are texting! Idiots! The fine should be severe as in "pull over you idiot, I am taking your car and your license from you. You can text all you want while riding the bus! Enjoy"
I think a monster truck should drive over them, and then a little Super Marion janitor should come along and sweep the remains into a sack...
