Using cellphones while driving

[vernard]

Why of why do folks refuse to use headsets with cellphones when driving?

They should make it illegal to sell a cellphone without either speakerphone capabilities or a headset.

Interesting points. Wish the studies I've seen had addressed them, but the data either doesn't show a significant risk from people not turning their heads, or perhaps they turn their heads anyway during tested events. Dunno.

I have bought several headset/hands-free kits. The wiring in them is so flimsy that I have spent more than I did on my phone itself trying to be good. I may have to get a bluetooth phone and a wireless earpiece next.
