Hasn't this last paragraph been proven false somewhere/somewhen? I don't
have time to google it, but I thought there was a difference in brain
patterns/attention/reaction time when you (the driver) are talking to a
passenger vs. somebody on a phone....
Of course, I could be completely wrong.

They had a ton of links a month or so ago when chicago passed the cell phone
law saying the exact same thing. When i emailed Burt Natarus (the main guy
in chicago who wanted it) his exact responce via email was
"I am sorry, but you are dead wrong."and went on saying this:"I am
attempting to pass a statue state-wise."Thanks!!

I am a rational thinking person, and I have known all along that I do
not agree with you!

Re: Hands-free still ain't enough...
Yup. I think the solution is to install a monitoring device in the car that
issues you a traffic citation if you attempt to talk to a passenger that is
in the car.
