The law has changed and made me buy another piece of technology that, to be quite honest, I couldn't live without.
Well, finally the law has changed and we'll all be penalised if we're caught chatting on our mobiles whilst we're driving. Of course, there's been the chance of a £30 fine since December 2003 but I reckon the fact that we now face 3 points on our licence will deter a lot more people.
The adverts have been on the radio for weeks and every magazine I flick through has a mention of it somewhere. This is probably the main reason that I have succumbed to the pressure and bought myself a car kit
Mind you, it isn't all bad. The kit cost a snip under £60. So, you could say that by investing the money that would have been spent on an endorsement, I've saved myself the points and the embarrassment of being pulled over by the blues and twos on the school run.
OK, so you probably now know I'm a mother and with 2 of my own kids, and 2 others on loan between 8.30 and 8.45 every morning my concentration levels when driving probably aren't the best. I must say though, since buying my Bluetooth car kit I'm finding that the biggest plus is I'm answering calls that otherwise got missed. This was usually due to the fact that it's very hard with one hand to find a mobile in your handbag which sits in the foot well and keep your eyes on the road.
The result of having my new hands-free kit is that I haven't once driven 30 miles to a cancelled meeting or faced the wrath of my boss when I've returned to the office.
My husband appreciates my car kit too and loves the fact that I'll call him on my way home in the evenings for a catch-up chat that we wouldn't get time for otherwise. By the time I'm leaving work, he's home feeding the kids so it's like a bit of "us" time.
I've even convinced him to get his own but he's opted for a fully-fitted car kit. He says it fits his executive image better. I know that he really means only the best will do for his car. Whichever it is though, I'm just pleased that neither of us is risking our licences any more. Just the thought of early winter mornings, four children and me on a bus scares me.
