    Bluetards, Toothbags: Lend Me Your Ears!

    Bluetards and Toothbags: It's The Law!I'm a little tired of people claiming BT-Headset laws are making the roads safer...

    These single-take rants are fun, but I would have liked to clean up some of the ideas and maybe add some kitten-filled school bus accident noises. Also, I could have corrected the "New York" assertion. Hands-free laws are PRIMARY there, not secondary enforcement. Oregon, Maryland and a handful of other intelligent states using secondary enforcement can be found here.

    Maybe next time I'll bite the bullet and edit in Final Cut. Then I could avoid the inevitable, "in the video he said NY. Whatta tard!" flamebait trollings to come. Oh well, hope you enjoy the whining regardless!

    When you first started talking about this I wasn't so sure about what my stance on the whole situation was. And after watching your video i can completely agree with you but adding one more piece of information. I'm sure that the law is expecting the people to put the headset on BEFORE they start driving. The thing is that it is probably not what most people are thinking when they get into their car to go drive somewhere unless your some intense business man, who is probably so engulfed in the conversation that he isn't paying attention to the road, anyways. The whole cellphone situation is pretty messed up anyways unless a person just decides to NOT have any conversations at all while he/she/ is driving, get used to putting a headset on before driving, or maybe just deal with speaker phone which usually ends up with the driver yelling to what seems to be no one and looking like some crazy person as other people drive by. But the rest i agree with making it an additional fee and also kitten bus sounds would have been much appreciated. but what do i know, i cant even drive yet. :D

    I like using the term "bluetool" as well. Something else for your arsenal of derogatory tech lexis. Though I'm sure it will be ages before you even read this but hey, you're a busy guy.
