With the number of traffic accidents caused by mobile phone use on the rise, authorities are cracking down on the illegal use of mobile devices with stricter laws. Laws have been in place since 2012 which make it clear that a driver in a moving or stationary vehicle must not hold a phone in his or her hand other than to pass the phone to a passenger. So if you want to make, or receive, a call while driving what do you do?
The answer is to put your mobile into a cradle like the Strike Alpha Cradle. Fully compliant with national road safety laws, it is Australian designed, engineered and manufactured, and has a range of automated preferences which allow the user to control phone functions such as GPS navigation and playing music; its breakthrough technology means the unit is compatible with virtually all Bluetooth car kits. Even better it's ideal for low-signal areas, with the cradle able to boost your mobile signal using a flush passive antenna up to a 2 Amp output, while also charging the user's hands-free device at an extremely fast rate.
This device is extremely easy to install yourself with multiple mounting options allowing it to hold, swivel and protect, while charging through the cigarette lighter, or you have the option of building it into your car by way of a professional installation. And there is a range of different cradles for different smart phones, including iPhones including the new iPhone 6, also Blackberrys, HTC, Nokia and also iPad.
The Strike Alpha Cradle is not only practical and makes driving safer and legal if you're using a mobile phone, but it also looks great. In fact, if you're heading out on a road trip it's essential; you'll not only be able to make and receive calls, but also listen to and control music from your device, and use GPS navigation if you have it. It's a must-have for all road warriors!
