The new ‘no phoning-while-driving’ law won’t be any problem for Barry Penner. He’s ready for it, you see:
Last year, my wife and I purchased a used hybrid-car that has a hands-free phone option built into the sound system. My cellphone also has a “speaker phone” mode so I can use it without holding the phone to my ear. – Chilliwack Times
See, he has a super high-tech phone with something called “speaker phone” mode. Incredible. I bet it even tells him who is calling and what time it is and all sorts of cool stuff like that. Just wait until that becomes available to the general public. It’ll be like the Jetsons.
It’s also a nice of him to very subtly mention his car is a hybrid… just in case somebody has forgotten that he’s in charge of The Environment.
