Yeah, a bit like mine - it is obviously incorrect when it says "you are over the speed limit", I wouldn't be over the speed limit because that would be against the law!

Good game, I missed one point, and two questions - BUT for some questions I pressed the space bar before she'd finished asking, and it took me a little while to realise that it didn't count as a response... gah.

This shows you if Steven Joyce is serious about safety, then all cellphone use should be banned including handsfree

If Steven Joyce is serious about banning handsfree then talking to your passengers should also be banned. Similar concept.

Go further and ban taking passengers. Or isolate the driver in an acrylic cubicle.

Seriously.

I find myself keep crashing when playing my xbox racing game everytime my wife talks to me.

Im not sure about this one myself. It is illegal to use a non hands free mobile while driving (In Ozzy) and caries a $250.00 fine and 3 points (We get 12 points on our lic)

I will answer the phone if Im on motorway or something where I have spare hands and time, but if it is a call that needs attention I'll pull over to talk.

I wont answer if I am in traffic because the things you have to do at low speed make me too busy!

I have no prob with women yakking on the phone because they are able to multi task, but if they are putting the mascarra and nail polish on at the same time....then that is the same as texting.

When I see someone texting (and you would be surprised how common it is)

I give a big long pull on my big ass air horns (Big Truck) and watch the car do the "Holy fuck whats that!!!!" Shimmy.

If Im on the bike and I see someone texting..I follow them home and slash their throat with a blunt Stanley knife. Blunt is better because the blood does not shoot out so far and ruin your clothing.
