Sec. of Transportation: "We're Looking into Technology to disable cell phones in vehicles" Scotty Starnes | November 16, 2010 at 6:00 PM | Tags: big brother, cell phones, Nanny state, Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood, vehicles | Categories: Uncategorized | URL: http://wp.me/pvnFC-3uQ

Big brother is even bigger since Obama took office. Their goal is to turn American into a nanny-state where the government knows all and controls all.

The Daily Caller reports:

 

Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood said using a cell phone while driving is so dangerous that devices may soon be installed in cars to forcibly stop drivers — and potentially anyone else in the vehicle — from using them.

I'm guessing they didn't think about the consequences of jamming cell phone signals. What happens if someone is trapped in their vehicles and can't call 9-1-1?

"There's a lot of technology out there now that can disable phones and we're looking at that," said LaHood on MSNBC. LaHood said the cellphone scramblers were one way, and also stressed the importance of "personal responsibility."

Personal responsibility with the help of Big Brother.

The hosts of Morning Joe pushed the secretary about the possibility of requiring scrambling technology installed in vehicles.

"I think it will be done," said LaHood. "I think the technology is there and I think you're going to see the technology become adaptable in automobiles to disable these cell phones. We need to do a lot more if were going to save lives."
