Hands-free accidents waiting to happen

Imagine the first cars, a new technology, kicking up dust on Manitoba's unregulated roads. Imagine our government then banning alcohol consumption while driving, unless the alcohol was consumed hands-free, creating a booming market for in-car beer holders with long straws securely attached to a driver's mouth.

Absurd, you say? Reflect on Manitoba banning only hand-held cells in light of research on this life-and-death issue showing that using hands-free devices while driving is just as dangerous as using hand-held devices.
