Hands Free Shavers?

Unusual doings in a car going southbound on I-5 this morning which had changed into the lane to my right. He oversteered considerably which caught my attention. As we passed him all became clear: electric shaver in hand, examining his work in his rear view mirror, trying to keep eyes on road and vehicle in the lane.

So in a state in which we must use hand free devices with cell phones come July 1, 2008, is the legislature going to deal with this issue as well? At least he wasn't using a straight razor?

One at a Time

Last week with the mid-week July 4 holiday was a generally quiet commute. Except for Tuesday morning at the three way stop at the tee of NE 40th St and 6th Ave NE, under the I-5 bridge. I'm turning left to go south on 6th. Hello Saab traveling east on 40th: One car through the stop sign at a time, not two... MMR:8.
