I believe the phone law is necessary, so many idiots out there! As for the Loch Lomond thing. I'm sure litter is a problem, it is everywhere! But for the Loch Lomond tourist people, they have just had a morning on all channels of free publicity! The BBC lady Ms. Minchin was dribbling with "its so beautiful", "wonderful views" etc. I wonder how many people looking at their TV this morning said, "now that's an idea, why don't we visit Loch Lomond". I bet they did!
I sometimes work on the idea that even items like 'new' laws are just another example of how innovative capitalists can create new wealth, jobs and so on. Added together with other 'laws' it must be bonanza time for the lawyer industry and for all of the other industries like printer firms, marketing people and so on that will benefit as well. Just think of the wealth that's going to be created because of Brexit. I wish I was a lawyer!
Surely the solution is to ensure that a phone will not work inside a car, or is this too simple? Would it make less money for some people, would the sales of phones go down as a result or less calls will be made? Perhaps the government doesn't want to upset the car industry?
I remember the seatbelt campaign, new companies, jobs and wealth created by the law must have benifited so many people and of course when you add to it the 'child' industry of car seats and so on, childrens seats, etc, etc.
