PB, it's no wonder Tony Blair wins and the dopey conservatives lose. < The proposals were welcomed by campaign groups, but the Conservatives said that anyone who kills while using a mobile should be charged with causing death by dangerous driving, which carries a maximum jail sentence of 14 years.> Why on Earth the conservatives have such a fetish about mobile phones beats me. I guess they are kind of ignorant modern day Luddite. Killing somebody by failing to pay attention due to any number of other distractions is okay, but talking on a handsfree phone is tantamount to intentional murder. Maybe they were misquoted as that's so ridiculous that only a loon would come up with such an idea. Tuning a radio and crashing is okay. Listening to a passenger is okay. Checking the children in the back seat is okay. Looking at the view for a couple of seconds is okay. Lighting a cigarette is okay. Checking make-up is okay. Listening to a voice through a speaker is NOT okay and punishable by 14 years gaol. Let's hope Tony Blair wins again. Mqurice
