>Now this response surprised me Tamar. You frequently posted that the public good outweighs the individual needs so I would think that the safety of all citizens on the road outweighs the need of a single citizen to use the cell phone while driving... :o0

My point isn't that I think everyone should be allowed to use their cells while driving. (I have a headset because I know I can't safely steer and hold the phone, and even so, I rarely make calls while driving.)

My point is that we need to look at the whole picture of unsafe driving rather than just focusing on phones.
