I'm glad people are spending so much money to figure out what rational
thinking people have known all along. It's not the goddamned phone. IT'S
THE CONVERSATION.
No difference between talking hands-free on your cell and talking to the
person in the passenger seat. If anything, the later may be more dangerous
if you tend to try and look at the person occasionally.

Hasn't this last paragraph been proven false somewhere/somewhen? I don't
have time to google it, but I thought there was a difference in brain
patterns/attention/reaction time when you (the driver) are talking to a
passenger vs. somebody on a phone....
Of course, I could be completely wrong.

They had a ton of links a month or so ago when chicago passed the cell phone
law saying the exact same thing. When i emailed Burt Natarus (the main guy
in chicago who wanted it) his exact responce via email was
"I am sorry, but you are dead wrong."and went on saying this:"I am
attempting to pass a statue state-wise."Thanks!!

I am a rational thinking person, and I have known all along that I do
not agree with you!

Yup. I think the solution is to install a monitoring device in the car that
issues you a traffic citation if you attempt to talk to a passenger that is
in the car.

You are certainly good at contradicting yourself in a single sentence.
