Let's make that illegal so people have to ride around in awkward silence.
Some laws are too stupid to follow. I consider it civil disobedience. I'm like Gandhi. Yeah, that's right...Gandhi.  |
I think he refers to the risk of getting caught by the police.
I don't like people who walk around outside with bluetooth headsets either but there was plentlyyyyyyyy of times that I find using a bluetooth very handy.
Driving is one. I can drive and talk at the same time no problem but it just feels more comfortable not having to hold the phone while doing it.
And yes. Talking on the phone IS a safety issue no matter how much you think it isn't. There are a lot of bad drivers out there who get distracted very easily and if there's a law that can reduce the chances of these bad drivers killing me, I'm all for it. I know my friend falls into that category. Guy almost crashes from texting and shit.
Another time I like using it is at home especially in situation where a wired headset gets in the way. Cooking, playing games, installing things, having sex, changing, walking around, etc. You never have to worry bout getting caught up with the wire or knocking the phone down.
That said, fail on apple for fucking up yet again. I shoulda waited for the iphone 5.
