State and territory jurisdictions are toughening their stance on illegal GPS and mobile phone usage. For example, motorists caught in Victoria using an electronic device without a mount face a $477 fine and 4 demerit points. A wise motorist using their GPS or smartphone secured to a mount can focus on driving and respond more quickly to a dangerous situation, especially on narrow regional roads which have little room for error.

Now in Australia, Bracketron is an industry leader in the United States for electronic device holders and related accessories.
Bracketron’s range of mobile phone, tablet and GPS holders as well as charging devices and cables for the Australian market are for sale on the official Bracketron Australian website.
The website also has a dedicated page called ‘Safer Driving with Bracketron’ to inform all motorists about the dangers of driving whilst distracted.
Richard Partington category manager at Master Distributors said: “Bracketron have been market leaders for over 15 years in creating quality, affordable universal mounting solutions that allow for safe in-vehicle use of GPS and mobile devices.
“The Bracketron range includes a broad selection of mounting configuration options including dash, window, vent and cup holder, all designed to offer an optimal level of flexibility and functionality.”
Recently we had the Bracketron TekGrip Cupholder road tested by John Blake who has both a Samsung Galaxy and iPhone. Mr Blake an avid snow skier makes a weekly 10 hour round trip from Melbourne to Falls Creek.
“The best thing about my journey is having my mobile phone secured to a Bracketron mount which fits in my car’s cup holder.” Mr Blake said.
“It is very flexible and fits both my Samsung Galaxy and Apple iPhone. The non-skid padding stops any scratching and I can rotate it 360 degrees.
“My Bracketron mobile phone mount allows me to stay focused on driving, rather than taking my eyes of the road.”
