If I'm in the city I leave the phone sit or I pull into a parking lot to talk. Out on the open two lane or freeway with minimal traffic, it's much easier to add the phone to your multi-tasking without overloading yourself to the point of distraction. And like anything else, lots of practice helps. You learn how not to use the phone in your car as you gain experience. A little like learning to ride a MC - after awhile, you learn where not to put yourself in traffic situations. Me too. I don't like it any better than you do. Way too many people putting the phone yakking first, and driving a distant second, maybe even third or fourth. That might be stretching it a little bit. But then I come from the perspective of being a guy who, as a younger man, routinely operated my MC while intoxicated, sometimes ridiculously so. I'm pretty sure I put myself in more danger then than I do now.</blockquote>
