Texting while driving

[ZenGum]

The difference between talking on a hands-free and talking to your passenger is that, according to a study I saw about a year ago, the passenger is aware that you are driving and will pause in conversation when they see you are doing a difficult move (say, getting across three lanes of traffic) and need your full concentration.

However, I also have read that on average women are better at multi-tasking then men. The posters here who say they do multiple tasks while driving are women. Maybe they are more able to deal with these situations than we others would be. But even so, I Do Not Approve. [shakes head sternly].
