So if we can think of a tragic example of the 18 wheeler killing someone
it's OK?

Cellphone use while driving is unsafe period.  Even a passenger talking
can be enough, never mind the additional problems of handling the phone.

It is getting to be that almost 100% of the time during the day that
you see someone doing something unsafe or dangerous, they have a cellphone
glued to their ear.  Maybe it is different where you drive.  Not here
in the Seattle area.

Orin.
