    Most people who want a ban are the same ones who still use them while driving.
    Try this next time you are on a cell phone while going home, say chatting with your spouse for the 5 to 10 min trip home.Once you get home try remembering if you had any red lights or any green lights on your path home. Fact is almost everyone who is talking on the cell on the way home can not remember if they had any stops or not.The phone seems to have its users in a trance.Your attention is not what so ever on the road, only your reaction is, which means your reaction does not happen from advance attention of whats around you or ahead. Also while one has a hand held at the side of their head and making a turn at a main intersection, they do not have a full radius of the surroundings as if you would without the phone and arm stuck to your ear, try it, if you haven't already.People should not have their cell up to their ear while turning.My new truck has a built in phone, all voice activated, its more like talking to someone in the passenger seat. You will see them in all vehicles shortly.

      I won't take your test I ALWAYS pull over then call them back. I won't even pull my phone out to see who called while the car is in motion.
