Now that's a good traffic safety ad.

I have been driving and using a phone for years and have never had a related incident and think bad drivers will find distraction from the road regardless of mobile phone laws.

Mate get out of the kaka and get some sleep! Do you realise how nervous all those wild water barrels must be with you driving around talking on your phone for years on end?

Well Jasen, you may think you are doing it right, but there are a lot of f**kwits who cannot drive and use a mobile phone at the same time, and I don't want to be a target for their out-of-control vehicle!

What are the odds of this incedent "NOT" being mobile phone related?

My dad once ran his Hilux straight up the back of a BMW without even touching the brakes. Made a mess of the Bimmer and we needed to straighten the bullbar afterwards. This was before mobile phones and on a reasonably warm day

A mate of mine did something similar except he was on his phone, or at least using it as a camera. Chance in a million pic he said. Lots of damage but a very nice pic. Beach side terrace. I will let you work out what or actually who so urgently needing photographing and what she was doing...

I was in the car years ago with my Ex (was my Mrs at the time), she was driving and we were stopped at a red light when she decided she was going to give me a um present, anyway as she was delivering said present her foot came off the brake peddle and we rolled back into the car behind us, there was no damage and the guy we rolled into was very cool about it and couldn't stop grinning the whole time we were apologizing to him. No camera phones were used that day luckily lol.

This is not a mobile phone distraction but a distraction never the less and a gut wrenching story to go with it!

It took satnav 18 seconds to tear two families apart

Going to cost you $400 in WA shortly.

and it should be double that ... 400 is nothing compared to the consequences and is certainly not enough of a deterrent
