Default Cardnial Sin

Alright maybe not a true sin but close... While driving and talking on the phone the people on the other end always can tell when i'm making a turn. Is it just me or do the JK's have the loudest blinker sound ever?

Hahaha, I was on a phone conference meeting last month. Sitting in my jeep, well it got hot, and I decided to crank it for some ac. DING DING DING, I was busted, they new I wasn't in the office. Had an excuse though so it was cool. But the other guy that was over heard ordering his chicken sandwich had a hard time explaining.

What cell phone do you use where you can carry on a conversation while driving? I mean for the most part except dead winter I got the windows down, top off, or doors and top off so there is no way to use a cell phone. In fact the wife and I are considering canceling service because of that and the fact they don't work out here in the sticks at our house.

I always use my headset, with the boom mic & wind screen over the mic, when I drive. I can go fully open and have no problems hearing or being heard with it.

Probably gonna get flamed, but here goes anyway..............HANG UP AND DRIVE! Having been nearly killed by a "driver" on a cellphone, I' pretty adamant about this. And remember, just cuz it rings doesn't mean you have to answer it.
