The people you see erratically on the road talking on cell-phones
aren't the only people on the road talking. Think about it a bit.
You/we only notice the 'cell-phone drivers' who are incapable of
multi-tasking because ther ARE erratic. Try looking at each driver as


you pass them or are being passed. You will be surprised to find the
majority of cell-phone talker's driving is normal.



"It may be as normal as most (moderatly) drunk driving. You can and
usually
make do make it home even if you are a bit woozy."

I totally disagree with your statement that ANYONE driving while
talking on a cellphone is incapable of driving at a skill level above a
drunk driver. Absurd! You totally missed the point. Why not take a look
yourself when on the autobaun (sp?) rather than depending upon the
sensationalist media and special interest group propaganda. If the
situation there is similar to here you will see many, many drivers
performing capably even while talking on the phone. No, I don't sell
cell phones, but I do use them.
