And here Lifehacker has an article on how to safely use a cellphone in your
car:
Funny thing, I bet an overwhelming majority of drivers would say the same thing.
If you are on the phone or texting while driving, you are just as
dangerous as anyone else doing the same thing. I have cut enough
corpses out of cars to know that NO ONE is good at multi-tasking when
driving is one
Why you go around doing that?
Is that legal? 0_o

Its not a competition or a contest. Its driver safety. You may be the
best driver in the world drunk stoned or sober, but there is no
guarantee that the idiot in front or beside you is. The chances are
that no matter how good you are, the guy hitting you won't be.

actually dislike the uneven sound of a bluetooth - loud in one ear and

the data are quite clear, using a cell while driving is like chugging
8 ounces of bourbon and then driving. Here's a pretty good study on it
It is against the law to use a cell phone (without a handsfree device)
or text while driving in Oregon. Unlike a number of other states, it
is a primary offence here which means they can pull you over even if
you aren't doing anything else wrong. They tend to nail people in the

the level of distraction is much much greater. I'd have to do some
searching on this again, but from what I remember none of the other
activities, such as playing with the radio, talking with another
person etc., did not result in as great of a delay as using a cell
phone.

Its not a generational thing, its a human limitation thing. So much
attention is captured by the cell phone conversation that only a
minimal amount is left over for other tasks. When driving at 60 mph,
