It's not enough. Cells should be banned from cars as should all electronic
toys including radios. Only a psychopath with no concern for the safety of
others drives while playing with some gadget.

You don't have a clue whether the resulting boredom would cause more
inattention than either cell phones or radios, and thus cause more accidents,
or not. Its well known that playing the radio helps keep some drivers awake,
and without a stimulus of some kind (speed limits are way too low to cause most
people to have to do enough to keep them focused on the driving task) lotsa
people go to sleep... even in the daytime...

It's not really a matter of what you're hands are
fiddling with ... it's where your MIND is. Car radios
are mostly passive devices - you set 'em to a station
and just LISTEN. That sort of multi-tasking is easy,
even men can do it :-) But a cell phone ... that's
NOT passive. You have to get INVOLVED in a conversation
with somebody who isn't even there. You kinda have to
move halfway into their world. Women get sucked-in
even more than men.

Meanwhile, the schoolbus has stopped short in front
of you ....

No question cell phones are worse than radios, but radios are bad too. The
driver should be focused on driving.

Careful though ... over-focus leads to 'highway hypnosis'
and/or falling asleep at the wheel.

99.5% of driving is just BORING AS HELL - so the mind
wanders as far as it needs to. Alas, exactly when that
critical 0.5% may arrive, it's just not predictable.

A problem.

Which, to an increasing degree, will be solved with
automated systems. There are already cars on the market
which will automatically brake when an obstacle appears
and the DARPA contests are yeilding auto-navigation
systems soon to be superior to human drivers for
ordinary highway driving.

So, "The Car of the Future" ... it may not even have a
steering wheel. Jabber on your implanted cell phone as
much as you want. Remember the transucent white egg-
shaped pod cars from "Sleeper" ? That's the 2025 Toyota :-)
