Comments on: Using Cell Phone While Driving https://www.krunk4ever.com/blog/2009/04/10/using-cell-phone-while-driving/ After eliminating all other possibilities, the one remaining-no matter how unlikely-must be the truth.

Talking on the cell is not the same as talking to someone in the same car as you. Often times, when I am driving, the ones who drive very slowly and dangerously are usually cell phone drivers (as well as a few other stereotypical genre of people that I will not mention cause it isn’t PC). However, I never notice people who are driving in the car with other people drive as dangerously as cell phone drivers.

On a very biased observation that I have made, my attention drops very low when I am talking on a hands-free device than if I have a full car and we are all yelling at each other. I have yet to fathom why that is, but it is an observation that I have personally made.

Also, I feel that the “hand on the cell phone” is also a culprit of bad driving. I see it all the time when I stop at a red light and I see people turning the steering wheel more than 180 degrees with 1 hand when making a left turn.
