Talking while Driving Brings Fines, Free Headsets

Talking on the phone while driving is one of the main causes of car accidents although in most countries, this activity is strictly prohibited by laws in case no hands-free/headsets are used. Because talking on the phone is extremely important for lots of people, the American website headsets.com found an interesting way to help them get a headset: every driver who's fined for talking on the phone receives a free Plantronics Discovery 925 Bluetooth headset.

The campaign is only valid for the first 734 tickets, the website informs, but, in case they run out of Plantronics headsets, you'll receive a different hands-free device incorporating similar features.

All you need to do to get your free headset is to visit the official website and fill in the form asking for phone model, citation number and other personal details.

The folks at headsets.com explain that this is a campaign especially meant to increase driver safety by allowing them to talk on the phone without the risk of accidents. “Frankly, we don't think driving while talking even on a headset is as safe as putting the phone down and focusing on your driving. But if you are going to talk on your phone, we want you to be safe,” it is mentioned on the page.

The Plantronics 925 headset is a simple device which provides both a stylish design and high-end noise reduction features. The rechargeable Li-ion battery can last for up to 7 hours in talk mode and up to 7 days in standby mode. The whole package can be purchased for 150 bucks, so it would be a great deal to get one for free in case you have to spend your money on fines.
