[QUOTE="brett636, post: 880225, member: 249"] I understand that issue all too well. A good number of our package cars are too loud to talk in with the engine noise and the clanking of the doors and bulkhead door talking on the phone just isn't practical. A good bluetooth can cure this problem even in the noisiest of package cars, but this covers them as well which simply is going too far. Oh please, large vehicle operators (ie, truck drivers) have fewer accidents than car drivers, and most of those accidents big trucks have are [b]because[/b] of car drivers acting stupid. You don't think a distracted car driver who swerves in front of me while I'm pulling a full trailer or set of trailers to make their turn or ramp while on their cell phone isn't dangerous? If truckers can't have them nobody should. There are no better drivers on the road than those who are on the road for a living. [/QUOTE]
