[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]All it does is bam physically holding the phone while driving, which is already banned in work zones.  You can still make phone calls using hands-free devices.[/quote]

Making phone calls using hand-free devices should be banned too.[/quote]

That's ridiculous. So what you're saying is people need to be completely unable to communicate with the outside world when they're driving. What if it's an emergency?

It's 2020. The reality is people communicate on the phone while driving. Using a hands-free device is perfectly fine. In fact, most new cars have built-in systems to facilitate it.

Are you saying it will be illegal for me to use the voice command system that Ford built into my car to make phone calls? [/quote]

No. What I'm saying is, when you're operating a motor vehicle, you should be required to stay off your phone.

Using a hand-free device is not perfectly fine. It's distracted driving.

And it should be illegal for Ford (or any other car manufacturer) to build voice command systems into their vehicles to make phone calls.[/quote]
