Drivers 'ignoring' mobile phone ban.

Drivers 'ignoring' mobile phone ban. :

"About 1,000 people are caught each month talking on the phone while behind the wheel of a car."

And that's only in WA! They are not ignoring the ban. The law doesn't apply when they are on the phone and the law doesn't apply when the phone rings. Mobile phones have dispensed with laws and etiquette because they are a law unto themseves and when the phone rings the mobile phone user has to answer it and is excused any laws, protocol or etiquette.We get what we are prepared to accept. Can't remember where but they have started putting photos of users in the paper. Don't know how it sits with privacy issues, but like the speeding fines, the photos can be sent in the post with expiation notices. Teach the littles, target the ignorant.
