Sad to hear that.
I hate talking on the cellphone when I am driving.
I rarely do it.
I never do it, if my phone rings while I'm driving, I ignore it and wait until I'm stopped and call them back.
I realize that for me, talking on a phone is very distracting while driving but I do what I do of my own free will and speak only for myself. We don't need any more damaging nanny laws.
