Talking on the phone while driving does affect the driving of a lot of people.

I drive a lot, and can often spot a cell phone user long before I am close enough to see if they’re using a phone.

Avoiding them is a good practice.

I believe you’re correct to a point..... BUT. I often take long trips with friends and family....we talk. Too much talk sometimes. I find no difference with a phone.

I have witnessed texting swerving much more than simple calls. My new explorer was rear ended and totaled at a light by a distraught lover in a work truck who was texting furiously to get his girlfriend back. The cop was too put out to confiscate the phone.... I let his insurance handle it. But my wife was in bad shape for weeks.

No. I talk on phones.....hands free... I personally have no problems doing this as I can walk and chew gum at the same time.
