Mon Jul 11, 7:09 PM ET

PARIS (AFP) - Holding a mobile phone while driving more than quadruples the risk of an accident, and using a hands-free phone kit is almost as dangerous, according to research carried out in Australia. cont....


This is perhaps something that we have known all along. Handsfree kits certainly does not increase one's concentration on the road while talking on the phone. Handphone usage while driving remains a distraction that can be fatal while driving. We now even see individuals with bluetooth headseats permanently embedded in their ears even while not in usage.

It is still safer to stop by the roadside while talking on the phone. And please take those bluetooth sets out of your ears before it becomes a permanent fixture for without it you will be unrecognisable!
