July 1st is Handsfree day in California

That’s right, you need to be handsfree in California while driving your car if you are using a cell phone. If you car is not Bluetooth ready, then you need to get a device. There is either the ear-bud style or a speaker phone style. For ear buds I see the Jawbone and the Motorola H680 as to very popular models in the Real Estate industry.

There are also speaker style devices for those who do not want to look like Lt Uhura from Star Trek.  These speaker phone style devices are small, compact and clip to your visor.  If you want privacy when others are in the car you will need an earbud style device so choose carefully as a good quality handsfree device is not cheap.

For those who are under the age of 18, Cell phone use while driving is prohibited and the use of hand free devices is no exception.
