I can see the agonized rants now: "Obama bans cell phones"....

[Guns Guns Guns]

A federal safety board called for a nationwide ban on the use of cell phones and text messaging devices while driving.


The recommendation is the most far-reaching yet by the National Transportation Safety Board, which in the past 10 years has increasingly sought to limit the use of portable electronic devices -- recommending bans for novice drivers, school bus drivers and commercial truckers.


Tuesday's recommendation, if adopted by states, would outlaw non-emergency phone calls and texting by operators of every vehicle on the road.


It would apply to hands-free as well as hand-held devices, but devices installed in the vehicle by the manufacturer would be allowed, the NTSB said.


The recommendation would not affect passengers' rights to use such devices.

3,000 dead in distraction related car deaths. Cellphone use is equivalent to drunk driving.

hardly, DUI's result in about 20,000 deaths a year.

california already has the ban. further, this is a state issue, not a federal issue.

And if Bush had pushed for it, libtards would have marched on DC, complaining about their 1st amendment rights, civil rights and what ever else you could think of. Hey how about we ban cellphones from any one not 21 years of age, I am sure my nanny state of California would buy into it.

Probably. But since the recommendation was made on Obamas' watch, you're opposed to it, right, Webbsy?

:lol:

The laws requiring hands-free only use of cell phones was a waste of paper. The act of holding the cell phone is not the danger. The attention granted to t he call is what is the danger.

Maybe that's why the NTSB recommendation would apply to hands-free as well as hand-held devices...

It's only a recommendation, and the righties are already lining up to oppose it because it was made public while Obama is president....BTW texting while driving is an even bigger distraction IMO.

Oh that's just sick! Where to these perverts come from?

Maybe he doesn't like hummers cause he's never had one performed on him by someone truly talented in the art?

If that's the case maybe we should introduce him to Governor Perry. God knows he's one hell of a cocksucker!

 

[Guns Guns Guns]

LOL, the conservatards are seething with rage because "Obama banned cell phones", just as I predicted they would.

Now we get to laugh as they try to defend distracted driving as a "right"...

 

[Airstrip One]

The shitty drivers (i.e. the type of people who promote the bans) are always defacto distracted, so what should we do about them?

Drive a taller vehicle. Then only the truckers know.

T'would be a sad day...

We can't fix all the shitty drivers. But we can do something to try and keep at least some of the irresponsible idiots from killing other people.
