What about a person talking to a passenger? Or say a mom dealing with a screaming baby trapped in their car seat? Or a person eating a sandwich, drinking a coffee? What is it about cell phones that you don’t like?

There are a lot of ninnys out there who think that unless they can see the driver’s hands at 2 and 10 (or 9 and 3, depending on when they learned to drive) that driver is automatically “unsafe”.
Best solution is when distracted driving is a secondary offense. Those who have proved their multitasking incompetence through another violation are the only ones who need to worry.

Yeah, people smoking, holding a dog, talking on a phone, yelling at kids, adjusting radio/air conditioning. etc. etc.

Taking their eyes off the road just makes it a matter of time.
Most people can carry on a conversation with a passenger without taking their eyes off the road.

If they distract the diver, all constitute reckless driving. All should be punished.
If the baby's crying, stop the car and deal with it.
