Do Top Gear break the law almost every episode?

(1/3) > >>

dougle_turbo:
So there I was watching Top Gear the other night and as usual the 3 stooges were using radios to chat to each other whilst driving on a public road........

So can anyone tell me what the difference between using a radio and a mobile phone in a car is? Surely both are illegal?

MattPoss:
CB radio's (which i'm sure they use) are perfectly fine, nearly every wagon on the road has one fitted

Matt

Greeners:
It's not CB's they use it's walkie Talkies and I'm sure that can't be legal?

We have used them a couple of times for Ring Trips and I'm always very concious if I occasionally use it!

MattPoss:
Ahh I see (i've never taken much notice to be honest). In that case i'm not too sure about walkie talkie's,  you don't have to hold it to your ear but you still have to hold the unit and press a button to use it so effectively it's not a handsfree kit?!

Matt

Hurdy:
But do they come under the same legislation as mobile phones? That would be key to if they are illegal or not!

bet there's some kind of loophole :laugh:
