Texting while driving

[DanaC]

Over here, a hands-free phone is considered legal and acceptable. I don't see much difference between that and talking to someone in the car. As to how safe or unsafe that is I suspect that rather depends on the individual. Some people can multitask well and have their attention on the road and a conversation at the same time. Others not so much. I am pretty sure, if I were a driver, I would want any passengers in the car to shut the fuck up whilst i was driving, or at the very least not expect me to join in. I wuold want all of my attention on the road. My brother, on the other hand, can happily carry on two separate conversations and still have a greater awareness of the road than I could ever manage:P Not to mention lightning fast reactions.
