Ask not what your country can do FOR you; ask what they are about to do TO YOU!!

Who has banned it at a restaurant and what’s the penalty? The soup Nazi stealing your plate out from under your nose?
Donald Trump… In your guts you know he’s nuts.

They should be. I'll keep hoping for it

I frequently see "Don't Use" requests about mobile devices on menus. Other places want you to order from your device.
For Kristian Trumpers are not serving our Lord Christ, but their own appetites. By smooth talk and flattery they deceive the minds of naive people.

I have a 2009 Saab, and I am not getting shit. They said they won't fine you unless you get into an accident. Other than a drunk idiot backing into me in a crowded area after Ferndale Pride, I don't have an incident to my name. Totally not my fault. There were pedestrians all around me so I couldn't back up. Idiot rear ended the guy in front of me, panicked, and threw it into reverse and hit the gas.Rate This wrote: ↑Sat May 06, 2023 6:48 amTime to get CarPlay or android auto on your car radio.MotorCityRadioFreak wrote: ↑Sat May 06, 2023 1:58 amNo, I mean I drive with it in my lap.

The right needs to stop worry about what’s between people’s legs. Instead, they should focus on what’s between their ears.
Audacity sucks.

I upgraded my 2008 Lucerne… great idea. It’s like having a new car. $600. You can get cheaper ones.

Agreed that there are too many distracted drivers causing injury or death to others on the roads. Some may drive better with the one-size-fits-all legislative overreach being proposed here. (REEEE-member - it's an expensive privilege - not a right - to drive on da Mitt's patchwork quilt of coal tar fixes to potholes (which themselves do not pose a risk to life or property, of course.)
Perhaps a new bible of driver "privileges" (BODP) needs published, and posted prominently in inside each vehicle (but not in an area where the driver may be distracted by the very act of reading it), or public restroom.
It could go something like:
Of course, with EV's being 'electronic mobile devices', you'd pretty much be breaking the law by pulling it off the lot or out of driveway.
Perhaps a new bible of driver "privileges" (BODP) needs published, and posted prominently in inside each vehicle (but not in an area where the driver may be distracted by the very act of reading it), or public restroom.
It could go something like:
- Thou shalt not press the button on their phone stating, "Sorry, I can't talk right now" when a call comes in on it whilst driving in da Mitt.
- Adjust the temperature, fan speed, or any other parameter of the vehicle's environmental controls; distractions.
- Adjust the volume, bass/treble, balance, source or content of the vehicle's sound / entertainment / navigation system; distractions.
- Converse with, or interact with, any other person, pet or thing within the vehicle; distractions.
- Eat, drink, inhale or otherwise humanly consume anything which may involve removing eyes from the road or hands from the wheel of the vehicle; distractions.
- Use the vehicle's mirrors for anything other than informational information related to obtaining the positional relationship of the vehicle being driven to the road or other vehicles sharing said privileged pavement; distractions.

Re: The ACLU is against this bill. I'll be on my 2 meter or HF radio if you need me...
Like I said before, my philosophy is it can wait. My voice mail says "Sorry I'm not by the phone right now..."
First off, I'm sure most of us are old enough to remember when there were no cell phones. Or possibly old enough to remember no answering machine at the house. Did anyone have a panic attack when they left the house?
A phone don't need to be answered. A text don't need to be replied to. It can wait until you get where you're going.
Like I said earlier, what if you get in a fender bender or someone steps out in the road, you hit them but it's not your fault. Here's a Blues Clue. If you had a phone up to your ear, and someone seen it, you're screwed.
