Jim Bradley, Ontario Minister of Transportation, yesterday proposed a law which would fine $500 to drivers using their hands on any gizmo, including (but not limited to) mobile texting and e-mail. Stuff like this makes handsfree functions more than a luxury – they’re a necessity. Of course Ontario’s far from the first to implement such regulations, but for the sake of safer roads everywhere, let’s hope they’re not the last.
