I know I'm probably gonna catch a lot of flack on this, but I don't understand all the fighting over cell phone useage. Do I think that cell phones hinder the attention paid on the road? Yes for some. Is it going to stop the cops from being on their's too, or is it just us? Also, if using the cell phone is causing hazards, what about the women putting on their make-up or the guys shaving while driving? That shouldn't be any more allowed than cell phones. I mean, if you want complete attention on the roads, then stop all this with tickets too. Switching radio stations, eating, or changing cds can occupy your attention the same as cell phones. I've heard nothing on this activity. A lot of people have cell #s programmed in their phone and dial with one touch. Holding that phone with your shoulder or even with your hand is no more a hindrance than holding that cup of coffee or soda and using one hand to drive. Do I agree with texting while driving? ABSOLUETLY NOT! There are those out there that should not even have a radio at all for distraction. How many of you out there can change a station or put in another cd and have complete attention to the road?........That's what I thought. OK, hit me!! LOL!
