“It is not illegal to use cell phones while driving.”

If anyone cannot drive and talk on their cell phone at the same time because they become distracted then they have no business getting issued a driver’s license.

I saw a lady cop in my town this morning,driving a cruiser,and talking on a cellphone.

I had forgotten about it until I saw this post——and will call the police station tomorrow.

I was extremely annoyed-—and I like cops.

Wasn’t CA the state that tried to or maybe even passed a law that, when read in its entirety, the idiots made it so a cop would have to pull over to take a radio call.

Again, the actions of a few idiots will strike those of us that do pay attention - to the law and the phone - while the idiots that ‘don’t give a rats patootie’ continue to use the cell while driving as if they were sitting in their living room.

Gets to be if one passes a car with the driver having a cell phone stuck in their ear, and eating food that requires utensils - sit down food - you get ‘afraid’ to blow the horn cause you may wake up that sorry SOB and they will run into you.

It's not the talking so much as it is the use of the video features on smartphones. That and negotiating through several menus to get something to work properly.

Absolutely true.

Fortunately a lot of the people who have concentration that poor out themselves by calling for cell phone bans on everyone in cars. Their projection makes them easy to spot in some situations, so you know to try to avoid them on the road.

We have several in my church.

It is arrogant statements like that that help convince people that they can intellectually multitask successfully by thinking about their phone conversation and thinking about keeping the car in their lane and, most importantly, THINKING ABOUT ALL THE PERIPHERAL THINGS HAPPENING.

Naval Aviators, USN and USMC Pilots are among the most rigorously selected and trained 'vehicle' operators around. Capable, skilled and educated. Yet during recurring safety training, they are repeatedly reminded that they need to:

Aviate (fly the aircraft!)
Navigate ( keep aware of where you are, where you need to go and how to get there)
Communicate (last and LEAST IMPORTANT - IOW, never get so wrapped up in communicating that you neglect the first two.)

And Naval Aviators seldom have other vehicles or solid objects coming directly at them with closing speeds of 50 to 150 mph and routinely passing within 10 to 20 feet.

Negligent homicide at the least. Id say 2nd degree murder.

The caveat of course is that yure only charged if you do kill. But youve done the crime so you will do the time.
