I dont have a cell phone as my life is busy enough and why the heck would I want a leash on me ALL the time. But anyway for some of us talking on the phone, or changing a CD, or what not is just fine easy enough to do, BUT driving a 150 mph is also just fine for SOME of us but not everyone, think of laws as enforced lowest common denominator, for safeties sake. anyway be safe, have fun, and enjoy your cars.

I agree with most of the comments here there are people that can't chew gum and drive at the same time

this must be pretty dangerous because it just became illegal in NY. You must wear some type of ear piece to use a cellphone. I see it all the time people so preoccupied with the phone that there driving suffers and so do the people around them. :yesnod: :yesnod: :yesnod:

Only if they are a woman :D

I've seen some pretty wild things. I saw one lady on her cell phone, smoking, and then checking her face in the mirror while driving a manual transmission. Sometimes it gets to be just insane.
