FMCSA rule on cell phone ban makes National Register

What phones have the ability for voice dialing where you don't have to 'touch' the phone 1st?
My iphone can voice-dial but I have to press a button to make it listen for the voice before it will work.

 

Hands free yes!! get rid of it wrong thing to do. Making deliveries in big cities with no parking and some road work The Q-com (whatever u use) does not know about will turn into Evan a bigger problem.

 

My motorola Entice has voice capability. My bluetooth headset Motorola H17 does it. You hit the call button and it asks what to do.

Say call dispatch and it confirms and makes the call.

 

Years ago he was more a conservative. But he had some opinions that were wierd. He believed he should have a say on a person's thoughts.

After a few years in Washington he became more toward the liberal leaning.

After a few more, he was pathetic.

When Obama picked him for his current position, I knew we were in trouble because he never has been a supporter of trucks.

 

It doesn't bother me too much for the government to come up with these stupid rules, as I will ignore them anyway....the gov't can't enforce this sort of a rule....they don't have the resources and will just want people to follow the stupid law because they made it....sorry Charlie...ain't gonna happen.

You can't fix stupid...so I just ignore it.

Headset: Command not reconized, Try Again?"

Me: "Yes"

Headset:"Say command"

Me: "Call"

Headset:"Say name or number"

Me:"Dispatch"

Headset:" Did you say call Mark?"

Me "F**King POS!"


Headset flys into sleeper I disconnect headset and dial number by hand as Dispatch answers Headsert auto reconnects and I have to hang up pull over and turn it off then dial again

 

I had that same conversation with my headset, only I swear I heard it say something like "dumb f^#$" once to me........who knew.

 

You need to talk hindi to it .It doesn't understand your accent.

 

Eagle Eye, I am still laughing at that one.....#### it man.

I will say right now, if you see a SNI truck blow its horn when it goes by you and you jump, it is because you are holding your fricken phone to your ear, going about 45 or 50 mph and swirving. You drivers that use handsfree, great..that is better. I tell you though, I see more drivers with the phone to there ear than a person would think. And don't get me started on driving through a parking lot, backing into a spot or heavy traffic. Comeon,,,how can they call a truck driver a professional that drives with a phone to his ear in heavy traffic and while parking??? You can't, period! One more thing, lets take off the headsets before we leave the truck,,,, and when your at the counter buying something, end the call! Some drivers are so dang dissrespectful towards others and expect everyone to show them respect...LOL yeah, right

All that being said, I don't want the gov. regulating anything.
There isn't anyone that can honestly say that a person can drive and talk on the phone safely. It would just be a lie and those that believe that lie, I pray dont learn the hard way that it is a lie.

Many State's have this law already in effect. Just like the no texting laws while in motion.
