    In-car entertainment will be next. New units must be designed to prevent you adjusting the controls while the car is moving.

      FFS this would be simpler and fairer

      It would make more sense and save effort for the government if everyone was automatically fined for everything every year and the innocent claimed the money back via the EDS designed "Not Guilty Credits System".

      HTH.

        STFU, like Gordon needs any more ideas.
        Why not?

          Presumably, it will be ok to breastfeed while driving though.

          You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.

              "Or winding down the window."

              How old is your car?
              Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

              I preferred version 1!

                You still have to press a button and move your hand off the wheel!
                The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.

                But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”

                  One can do a whole host of things without taking away your observation of the road and your capability of reacting.
                  I am not qualified to give the above advice!

                  Step back, have a think and adjust my own own attitude from time to time

                    I believe that looking at the speedo is also not a good idea as humans are apparently not so quick at refocusing.

                      Blinking is very distracting, as is sneezing.

                      I trust Blair and Co Legal MoneySpinners Inc can draft some legislation this afternoon to combat this.
