Posted by CM under Bluetooth Car Kit News, Driving safety
This time it is Nova Scotia that are set to ban hand held mobiles in vehicles, in a ban that is a result of a law passed in December 2007.
A first offence fine of $164.50 will be followed by a follow up fine of $222.00 for a second offence and then $337.00 for any subsequent offences.
Nova Scotia is the second province in Canada to ban drivers using cellphones and as with other areas that have passed similar laws, handsfree speakerphones are allowed, as are earpieces.
