“So whats next, I cant talk to my passengers?”
As many of us were taught in Drivers’ Ed:
Yes, talking to your passengers can be a dangerous while driving; IT IS THE CONVERSATION ITSELF, AND THE MIND’S CONCENTRATION ON THAT SUBJECT RATHER THE SURROUNDING ENVIRONMENT THAT MAKES IT DANGEROUS. But, at least with passengers in the same vehicle, there are extra pairs of eyes to help warn you of dangers outside. On the phone, you’re in your only little world!!!
So if I have a passenger in the car, is it OK to talk on a cell phone? Extra pair of eyes...
Waiting for them to also ban firemen, policemen, and pilots from talking on the radio while operating a vehicle.
If I see someone driving with a cell phone to their ear, I get away from them as fast as I can-they are usually gesturing with the other hand that should be on the steering wheel, too...
