driving his blue Toyota Prius on a winding stretch of Interstate 8, when he

发帖数: 9094 | 3 What I found amusing is that the driver called 911 using a cell phone from
his Prius while driving, a clear violation of the law! Heck, he did this
while driving a runaway car with speed >70 mph.
Just shut down the d*** engine first before calling 911 from the car and
making a fool of himself! | id

Not if he is using something like bluetooth headset to talk while driving.
It is violation of the law only if you talk with hand-held cellphone while
driving.

using a hands-free device. Besides, who would have time to make sure he's
not making a fool of himself in a situation like this?!
