Don't let a cell phone land you in a cell

We all love to talk on our cell phones, but come on, you really don't need to talk on your phone in the car. How can you expect to drive straight with your head cocked at an angle? Have you ever been cut off by someone talking on their cell phone? Have you ever had to pass a car going way too slow because they were talking on their cell phone? It's just a bad idea, because it robs you of your full concentration. The effect is exasperated if you have passengers in the car with stimulus coming at you from all angles. Most safety advocates tell you to pull over and stop if you are going to talk, and many states are starting to pass legislation about cell phone use in the car. If your caller really needs to speak with you, don't you think they can wait 10 minutes? Alternatively, some phones have speaker phone mode, so you can just put the phone down and talk.
