Make me... Just because you're not skilled enough to operate a vehicle and do something else like use a phone, doesn't mean none of us are.
Wait, I better not say that. If people like you had their way, we wouldn't even have radios in our cars.

As far as I'm concerned, you can drink, eat,text,talk,play games, watch TV or anything else you want to do while driving.
When the accident investigators determine such activities, I also support insurance companies invalidating your policies, leaving you exposed to lawsuits that will economically demolish you and/or your family. Hopefully one day this will be the case.
No need for government 'laws' at all

What gets me is all these "do-gooders" who think THEY know what's best for you.
I can fly a jet, correlate targeting data, do complex geometry and algebra in my head, scan my instruments, and look around my proximity, keep up with the jabber in my headset, and not crash. Does that mean that everyone can do this? No, of course not. Now, just because not everyone can multitask in such manner, does it mean that we shouldn't fly like this?
It's all about taking responsibility in what you do and the effect of your actions that results from your choices.
Be careful of what you wish for onto others, Dak. Karma is a Bish.

Immature??? Why? Because we have a sense of humor and can poke fun at serious issues without getting our panties in a bunch?? .
I second the no laws - but the insurance companies abandoning you. That's just win. (only if, however, the insurance company was smart enough to write it into their agreement .. )
