What do I need to use my mobile in the car?

For many people who spend long portions of their day on-the-road, using the mobile whilst driving is essential. For others it is sods law that the phone only rings when they are in the car or van.

Whichever category you fall into, it is essential that you think about your own safety, and that of others, and only use your phone hands-free when driving or not at all.

It is your own safety that is most at risk when you use your mobile whilst driving and even if you manage to safely complete your call the penalties for mobile use in the car are getting tougher and will continue to do so.

It is the holding of the phone whilst driving that is the legal offence so any form of equipment that enables you to use your mobile without having to pick it up will ensure you are complying with the law.

If you do stop to answer a call on your mobile you should make sure that your engine is turned off and your handbrake is applied.

There are two main options with regards to hands-free kits:

Cradle System
This is the traditional option in which your phone sits in a cradle fixed into your car. The cradle has to be specific to the phone meaning it is not very flexible if you have to change your mobile handset for any reason.
Bluetooth
Most mobile phones on the market now are bluetooth enabled. You can use a bluetooth hands-free kit with any of these phones. So when you change your phone you don't have to change your in-car kit.
