Riding a bike can be a risky business, particularly if you’re using a cell phone while doing so. Read the article on the Netherland’s legislative proposal to ban the use of cell phones on bicycles, Netherlands Proposes Legislation to Ban Use of Phones on Bicycles. Then, respond to the following:

• First, give your perspective on whether you think this is a needed and good proposal or not, and why.
• Second, add in how you would enforce compliance for this type of proposal.
• Finally, address whether you think this type of proposal should be put into place in any U.S. cities, and if so, where and why, and if not, why not?

• Imagine you are leading a team of designers for a new software product. During the kickoff meeting, the team starts to discuss design guidelines. About half of the team complains that guidelines can be too specific, incomplete, hard to apply, and sometimes wrong. The other half feels that building on experience from design leaders contributes to steady improvements. Take a stance on this debate and support your position. Then discuss how you would solve this conflict to get your meeting back on track.
