Using a phone when driving should be made illegal. Excluding truck drivers and state police.

Yep, an a gazillion pound 18 wheeled vehicle burling down the highway at 65 MPH with the driver on a cell phone, should be excluded from the ban. ;-)

And exclude me too, please, because
I am better, smarter, and safer than you are.

One of my sons is a longhauler - he constantly sees people zipping onto the freeway while driving dangerously. For ex: a guy with a phone in one hand, a cup of coffee in the other, (many many like this, ) steering with his knees. A lady opening and reading her mail on the steering wheel. etc etc.

Something has to curb this...and NO ONE should use a hand-held phone while driving. If you can afford a cell phone, you can afford a hands free head set. You have no right to put others lives on the line.

Many people, including Freepers, don't seem to understand that one person's personal freedoms ends where another's nose begins...i.e., if your actions impact another person, it is not a 'right'
