Using mobile phones while driving banned in Uzbekistan

Using mobile phones while driving is now banned in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan's neighbour, according to UzReport.

"President of Uzbekistan Islam Karimov signed the Law "On introduction of amendments to the Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan on Administrative Accountability" on 26 December 2006 and will go into effect January 1, 2007.

... Uzbekistan has thus joined 77 countries, where a ban has been placed on the use of mobile phones while driving".
