Embrace Innovative Technology And Go Hands Free
People have several names for these, from Hands Free Car Kits to Bluetooth Car Kits to Mobile Phone Car Kits but regardless of what they call them, they are entirely necessary for Drivers.
New Zealand has finally followed in the footsteps of most of the Western World and barred the use of Hand Held Mobile Phones while driving. Of course, the legislation continues to ignite healthy discussion as there are various people that simply see it as another violation on our human rights.
Like most legislation it will become just the standard in a few months time and individuals generally can move on to other topics to vent their annoyance. At this stage a lot of individuals will have purchased a Bluetooth Car Kit.
What will remain is a large number of fines being dished out for breaches of the new law. This! I see real sense in as opposed to ticketing drivers for 7 k’s over the speed limit.
Aah! You detect a minor frustration here don’t you.
Well! Perhaps it’s my turn to get on a soap box. Yes! I was ticketed by a speed camera. My crime was exceeding the speed limit by seven k’s. Serves you right! I hear from some of you. Yes! I am a criminal thus lock me away! I did it! I intentionally flouted the law and ought to pay the consequences. 7k’s is totally unacceptable but still I am a tad irked. I believed there was a 10k tolerance to permit more minor speed fluctuations, not that that is a defense.
Perhaps! it had been because I was in a college zone and if so then sobeit. But wait! At ten o’clock at night there aint several kiddies threatening to run across the road.
Just a note here
The Police are kind enough to point out that speed cameras are not a revenue collection exercise however they have a legal tolerance in place! Now I might be wrong here BUT! If being ticketing for driving within a legal tolerance is not revenue collecting then it’s truthful to mention “I’ll eat my hat” Of course the Government may have slipped a law change in under the radar (so to speak) and lowered the tolerance to 5k’s – to which I say REVENUE COLLECTION. If you would like to penalise folks for driving abuse then penalise them for speeding and drunk driving etc.
I’m yet to follow a police vehicle in normal traffic, that does not fluctuate in speed just that tiny bit above and below the limit and most of their cars have cruise control.
Well that is my gripe. No more moaning!
Currently where was I ?
Ah yes!
The easy act of turning off the mobile phone while driving isn’t so much an a choice today as our need to remain in contact with our surrounding world takes precedence. We live in a of amazing change and advancement. The current generations experiencing this transformation have done so at a level unparalleled within the history of man. The last 50 years have seen more change than ever and it continues to collect momentum.
So! Welcome the technology! Get yourself connected and use a bluetooth automobile kit
