   hands free cell phone

   Long before cell phones have been CBs and ham radios in cars. Am I to believe that cell phones are more of a distraction than these two other comm devices? When did it become an issue? How about your tape deck or CD player, or your cars climate controls; are these any less distracting. They are all basically the same thing. And how do we gauge when something that is manipulated in the automobile to reach the point where it is considered a distraction. What will the government do next; fund the development of the distractometer? What about the blonde in a convertible? Are we going to ban pretty things; how about shiney things? I can see it now, $100 fine for having anything shiney or pretty in your car, because after all, those can be distracting too.
