Your poll is absurd. Just because someone may oppose a ban does not mean they "do it everyday" or even at all.

Yes.

 

[Staples]

Yes and I drive standard anyway so I sure as hell never do.

Here in CT, no talking on a cell phone unless you use a headset.

I agree, if your using a headset, it's okay.

I can totally agree with that.

Now add a carputer, GPS, video games or TV into the mix and it's really insane.

You mean like this?

I'm glad I don't drive.

That ban already exists in NY, but no one pays any attention to it. I wholeheartedly support it. I hate cellphones as it is, but when people yap an talk at the same time it's just asking for an accident.

 

[Ranger X]

Yes, I support the ban but people who use handsfree set should be allowed.

 

[Ulfhednar]

I see that 66 people are either joking or complete fvcking morons.

 

[AkumaX]

as long as you can use handsfree headsets i'm cool with it

You wouldn't believe how many time these morons almost got hit by me because they stop in the middle of an intersection or brake in the middle of a turn for no apparent reason.

following to closely there partner, you're the one driving dangerously. back off a little and there will never be a problem.


me? i use my phone on occasion and i don't drive any differently either. i just don't typically make too much sense on the phone at times and only if its dry outside. ain't pushin my luck if its raining or snowing.

To get a drivers license in most states requires nothing more than taking a ridiculously easy test, driving a car around the block to show that you know how to buckle a seat belt, start, steer, accelerate, brake, and use turn signals yet everyone thinks that banning cell phones is the key to motoring safety nirvana.

That's what life insurance is for

I have life insurance. Personally, I'd rather be around though.
