This photo made available by the Saarland
State Police in Germany earlier today, shows a Ford Station wagon that has been
wired up like a portable office. The driver, a 35-year-old man was pulled over
for doing 130 km/h (81 mph) in a 100 km/h (62 mph) zone while passing a truck
Monday. Built on a wooden frame on his passenger seat they found a laptop on a
docking station tilted for easy driver access, a printer, router, wireless
internet stick, WLAN antenna, and an inverter to power it all. He also has a
navigation system and a mobile phone mounted on the dashboard. Since there
wasn’t evidence he used the office while moving, he got away with a euro120
($153) speeding ticket and possible fine for having unsecured items in his car.
It is remarkable the lengths that some
people will go to in order to carry on working while driving. It is important
however to remember that the laws are toughening up in the UK. It is now not
only illegal to talk on your mobile phone without a hands-free device, but it
is also an offence to text while driving.
Why not invest in a Visor GoBluetooth hands-free car kit from Supertooth.
It may not be a complete in-car
office, but it is the next best thing!
The kit features voice control so you can pick up your calls without
taking your eyes off the road and the auto-connect feature recognises
your paired handset whenever in range.
You can even pair 8 handsets simultaneously- great if you have more than
one phone! This portable visor solution is fully transportable and features 15
hours talk time and 800 hours standby time. It is also fully transportable so
can be used as a loud-speaker in your office or at home as well as in your car.
