The Truth On That "Hands Free Ban"

With a recent survey showing 84% of people do NOT support a proposed ban on the use of "hands free" mobile phones in cars, why is the government pushing ahead with this idea.

One purpose and one only - REVENUE! The NSW Government is forecasting a 140% increase in revenue by 2012 from the 2002 figure!

It turns out that road deaths have actually been declining over the past few years so to say this proposed ban is to reduce road deaths is just another government lie!

In NSW road fatalities have gone from 561 in 2002 to 409 in 2009 - a 27% reduction - while registered vehicles have increased by 21% (according to the RTA's own figures).

Vote NO for this proposal and write to your local MP with a strong protest.
