 "drive with a cell phone"  ....  ohmygawd.  Hey, what about drive with
 one of those GPS thingies, or changing CDs or scanning thru XM radio 
 or....?
 Maybe we should require a sterile car so that nothing, absolutely 
 nothing
 can distract the driver.
 (yep - this crusade about talking on a cellphone is a hot button for 
 me).
 Crusade all you want.  Argue from silly extremes all you want.  Talking 
 on the phone while driving increases risk of having a serious accident 
 by 4-5 times.  But you prove my point beautifully.  People don't really 
 give a rat's arse about being safer if it inconvieniences them, even if 
 the inconvienience is slight.
 Got any data to support that?
 Yes.
 Your google broke?
 Do your own homework piggy. Put up, shut, or you my bitch.
No problem.
