Honestly, while I do think that alot of people cannot talk on their phones and drive without causing danger to others, I don't like the idea of the goverment trying to legislate common sense.

There's already a law here about no use of headphones while driving, I've known people who've gotten…
Personally I honestly don't believe that it's about the use of the hand that causes as much of a problem as the distraction of the brain. When you talk on the phone, you're more mentally detached from your current situation, and there's been some pretty decent research that suggests that that's the case. When you think…
