Message: <blockquote data-quote="sakuraguy" data-source="post: 2057927" data-attributes="member: 6441">Mobile phones and driving safetyIt has been argued that the distraction caused by using mobile phones while driving is responsible for many road traffic accidents. Several studies have shown that motorists have a much higher risk of collisions and losing control of the vehicle while talking on the mobile telephone simultaneously with driving, even when using "hands-free" systems.LegislationAccidents involving a driver being distracted by talking on a mobile phone have begun to be prosecuted as negligence similar to driving while intoxicated.At least 28 countries restrict or prohibit cell and other wireless technology while driving:-Israel, Japan, Portugal and Singapore all prohibit mobile phone use while driving. - Australia, Brazil, Chile, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, Hong Kong, Hungary, Italy, Norway, Poland, the Philippines, Romania, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, Switzerland, Turkey, the United Kingdom, and the United Arab Emirates prohibit the use of hand-held cell phones while driving. -Drivers in the Czech Republic, France, and the Netherlands may use cell phones but can be fined if they are involved in crashes while using such a device. Legislation to restrict cell phone use has been proposed in 40 states in the US; California, New York, New Jersey and Washington, DC have passed such a law. The state of Arkansas is voting on passing a law that prohibits talking on a cell phone while driving. The voting will take place in the last week of January 2007.In the United States, such laws were first passed by individual cities and towns, until state legislatures began to pass similar laws. The first American town to pass such a law was Marlboro Township, New Jersey.Driving with Mobilephone usage in Malaysia shall be fined up to MYR300.00</blockquote>
