Cell phones aren't dangerous.
It's the idiots who use them that are. |

not just talking on the phone, but texting has made the news lately too. A lot of young people who can't wait to get home to message their friends.
Dropping your phone too. I had a friend killed driving b/c she dropped her phone and was trying to get it when she rolled through a stop sign, hit by a truck. Now she was more of a casual classmate than a friend, we never hung out or anything, but it still scared the crap out of me afterwards. It was a real shocker, and it hit close to home. It can happen guys, don't ever say it can't happen to you.
It's a shame how the law has to dictate common sense. Just like some other poster mentioned, with women (and men, lmao) putting on makeup, reading paper, on their laptop, etc. I was almost hit the other day by some women (in a suv of course) with eyeliner in one hand, and her cell phone in the other hand. I don't know what she was using to steer with.... |

if you drop it while you are chatting, then you might feel pressured to find the dropped phone!
If it rings loudly while you are driving, it could catch you off guard.
Talking on the phone can sometimes deal with emotional aspects, and if you are on your phone and you are emotional, it could tend to affect your driving....
be smart, don't talk and drive! |

In my opinion, there is no reason why they are dangerous other than they are a distraction. |

That is the big reason, there is nothing that can not wait till you stop the car. Nothing is that important. Just inconsiderate |

That's one thing that makes it dangerous when it rings, talking or listening on/to it. The other is trying to hold it to your ear while turning a cornor one handed and there's another car coming towards you because you went over into their lane. |

The biggest reason is that "Driving While on Cell Phone Is Worse Than Driving While Drunk".........
Cell phone distraction has now passed up drunk driving accidents........... |
