Suck in Traffic? Long Drive?
Here's the latest necessity for your Inspection vehicle that can help prevent boredom on those long drives or while stuck in traffic.



Amazon.com: The Easy Reader (Book Holder)(News Paper Holder): Everything Else

It might hold your Tablet PC so that you can finish your reports while driving to the next inspection.

That thing's no good! You can't read (or type) while turning a sharp corner!

That thing won't do me any good either John. I need both my hands free to brush my teeth and shave while driving.

Re: Suck in Traffic? Long Drive?
Great, we have people who can't walk and chew gum at the same time yet think they can talk on a cell phone or text while they drive who will be buying these and trying to read while they drive??????????????

Some things I've seen going down the highway:
Reading, texting, guy getting er,um, "taken care of" , guy , ahem, "taking care of" his girl, girl bouncing in lap going down the interstae in broad daylight, curling lashes, writing, "self serve", eating, peeing in bottle, working on laptop, even had a lawn chair bounce off my windsheild on I 71 between Columbus and Cleveland once ( came out of a rooftop carrier on a motor home). And now they are making things to help distract drivers.

Re: Suck in Traffic? Long Drive?
... and I recall from many years ago when I first was living in Dallas (mid 1970s) ... several times seeing the female drivers on the 635 loop during the AM commute applying makeup and then there were those times when they were still getting dressed.

Yes ... off came the nightshirt/robe and on went the bra and blouse and 'whew' did the traffic all around slow down.

Re: Suck in Traffic? Long Drive?
Does it come with any mounting brackets to hold a lap top? Now that would be a great time management device.

It will feel really good when you wreck and the air bag drives it through your chest. That deserves a Darwin Award.
