Yesterday, a new law came into effect in Winnipeg requiring drivers to use a hands-free device while talking on their cell phone. More than 100 drivers were fined on the very first day, according to the Winnipeg Free Press.
As the newspaper reported, it's very likely that most of these fines were the result of people forgetting rather than blatantly ignoring the law. What we'll be curious to see is how fines trend in the future. Will they increase? Will they decrease?
Fortunately, the solution is easy: A Bluetooth is an affordable and convenient way to go hands-free
