    Get a good traffic lawyer !!!

    Way to much fines not to fight & I think like "personal texting bans" it's going to be hard for the state to prove

    BUY A BLUETOOTH. $100 and you save $2650. Not rocket science. Stop being stupid.

    If you got a ticket you should contact an attorney especially if this is a first or second traffic violation. It may not save your job because you broke those rules.

    I second that, having bought my blueparrot head set for $80 two years ago, I have yet to worry about it.

    What I don't understand is why no one cares to invest a simple $80.

    can't speak for all. but even a headphone setup gives me ear aches when i'm watching movies on the laptop.

    my ears don't like anything in them. or over them. AT ALL.

    and i've got a few $30 bluetooths from walmart. just laying around.

    Still got the best pizza known to man at john wildwoods and the cheapest beer in the country! party scene has died down a lot since being top 10 for playboys party school list a long time ago. i dont drink anymore but that pizza is my biggest weakness! oddly enough i just applied for my own authority and should be in baltimore 2 to 3 times a week.
