Should There Be a Law?
…against shaving your head with both hands as you drive?
Ontario Ombudsman André Marin caught this guy on his iPhone in a video (guess who’s got a new 3GS) shaving his head with both hands as he was driving. It’s hard to make out the details in the vid, but I’ll take Andre’s word for it — which came via his Twitter strream, by the way. But only after he’d got out of his car.
I’d like to think that such reckless conduct would fall within the purview of an existing statute.

Ok I just watched the video. For a split second there I thought the shaver was using his iphone while shaving his head with both hands while driving. He was in fact merely shaving his head (with both hands) while his car was stopped. I think the result – ie having one’s person and car interior covered in itchy hair – is probably punishment enough.
Hm. Even if the Ombudsman was stopped at a red light (but not off the roadway or lawfully parked on the roadway), I think he was still technically breaking the law by using his iPhone to videotape the guy.
