Imagine your husbands signs a state law which penalises anyone for using a cell phone while driving and your own wife is caught by a Tabloid, driving and using her cell? I always thought Maria Shriver was smarter than that! What about her children? They all look up to both parents and I hope they are not as foolish as their own mother. I suppose Maria felt her husband was the Governor and nothing will happen to her!
Arnold has already warned his 16 year old daughter that if she drives and talks on her cell, she will be taking the bus as transport. Maybe he should do the same with Maria!
I think it's stupid. We know that nothing will happen and the truth is the paparazzi did it on purpose. Those who criticize Maria also speak on their phones while they drive give me a break! I'm not saying what she did was right but no need to be hypocritical.

I do not think that those who live in glass houses should throw stones. If the paparazzi are doing the same thing then they should not be taking photos and publishing them as a law breaker. I think if you want to see people who control the laws and break them then look at any local state governing bodies and watch how many speed, talk on cell phones and do not wear seat belts as they leave the capital building. I looked last week and 98% of them were breaking one of the laws that they set.
Pointing out the governors wife breaking the law is hypocritical in my book.
The question remains, why is she breaking the law? I wish a law like that was implemented in Trinidad. If I were driving, I would purchase a bluetooth if I could afford one. So what you are telling me, Maria Shriver, a Kennedy, cannot afford to buy a bluetooth? No one is above the law, including the Governor's wife. I really hope that Arnold makes an example of her to the public because in this way, people may take him more seriously and not regard him as "the Terminator."
It does not matter if she gets a ticket or not. She will continue to drive while talking on a cell phone just as those who have a blue tooth still drive distracted while chatting to their friends on the phone. A ticket here and there will not change the way people drive and how safely they drive. Even using a blue tooth head set your still distracted while driving.
