While it’s unfortunate that the FMCSA and federal government enacted a ban on hands-on cell phone use in commercial trucks, the good news is that it won’t cost very much to get your gear up to spec. Quite a majority of cell phones sold now feature Bluetooth connectivity. Many GPS units for trucks also feature voice command prompts through Bluetooth devices as well. So even though you aren’t happy about having to comply, you’re probably already ahead of the game.
Well, why waste any more time with news you already know? Let’s get to the Bluetooth Headsets, Truckers!
