Ok, it's ingrained so far in our culture I can't see how poll-o-rama missed it.

Have you got one?
Use it driving?
Use it in public?
Use it on public transportation?
Do they Piss you off?
Cell Phone drivers should be.....

Grief and Praise people, lets go!

Yeah...I have a Sanyo SCH-4500

If I use it while driving (which is rare) I have a hands-free set to use

It's always on me, so I use it in public quite a bit

I will usually have it on vibrate on public transportation, and unless I know i'm expecting the call, i usually won't answer it...

They anger me when people have them on in class or at exams..

Cell phone drivers should buy a car instead of riding around in a cell phone

Don't have one. Don't really plan on getting one either, I have zero need for one pretty much.

I got a Motorola Timeport P8167.

As far as using it when i drive? i have enough trouble driving without the phone so no :)

In public and public transportation all the time.

Tend not to piss me off.

Cell Phone drivers should be careful?

Personally I hate them, don't ask me why I just do. I am holding out on getting one as long as possible, but I will have to get one for work, it is inevitable.

I got a Motorola one for emergencies - that's about the only time I use it, except at home when I don't really have to pay roaming charges.

<<Have you got one?>>
Yep, Motorola SC3160, love the little thing.

<<Use it driving?>>
Yep, but only on straight, flat highway. Otherwise I just hang up immediately, and call the person back later. Love caller ID.

<<Use it in public?>>
Depends; walking down the street, yes; in a theatre / restaraunt, no.

<<Use it on public transportation?>>
I don't use public transportation, ever. Why pay someone else to do something that I do well already?

<<Do they Piss you off?>>
Only when people don't set them to &quot;silent&quot; mode in theatres and restaraunts, and don't go into the lobby to take the incoming call.

<<Cell Phone drivers should be.....>>
Judged on an individaul basis, there are people who are able to drive and talk perfectly well.

Yeah...I have a Sanyo SCH-4500 (Upgraded from Samsung 8500, Nokia 6162, Nokia 5160.)
I think I found the best. NOKIA SUCKS, anyone agree? 5160 sounds like digitalized crud with bunch of static the 6162 is somewhat better. Samsung 8500 sounded great but battery life sucked and flip was a hastle. The Sanyo 4500 is a GEM.

On occasion but I dont have my license till Saturday (hopefully)

Occasionally

Don't use public transportation

piss me off at the movies mostly

cell phone drivers should buy a car, I think it would break if i rode on it.

have used all Nokia, the one from Matrix, the 3,5,6,8 series. except the 7110 and 9110 (the one in The Saint). their interface is just too user-friendly. love it! currently have no cell.


would use headset if driving.
definitely does not bugs me.

I have one.
Use it when in stop n go traffic (mostly stop) when I get called. Otherwise I park and make a call.
I use it when I'm out with my friends. It stays in the car for class and other places where talking is considered rude.
I have used it on the subway before
I got one before they were the really in thing, before everyone and their brother had one. I think it's funny to walk around campus and see the stupid things all over the place. Don't piss me off too much.
Cell phone drivers should have to take a more stringent driving test before they can get a cell phone. I know how to drive pretty damn good, but still don't feel comfortable driving and talking. Hands free kits should be mandated by law.

Yeah, I have a Kyocera 2035a
Yes, but only if I absolutely have to.
Yes, I do use it in public, much easier then trying to find a payphone, of course I try to find a quite corner to talk, and not raising my voice to annoy people(seen too much of that, so I know)

What public transportation? :p I'm in SoCal :D

Cell Phone drivers should be left alone. if they are too stupid to handle a phone and drive at the sametime.. they are deserved to get whatever punishment they get (accidents and damages..)
