I don't understand why this can't be figured out. Holding the phone is NOT the distraction; some people just can't think and drive at the same time. I've seen many people driving along at 40 mph on a highway because they're talking (even on hands free) and not paying attention to driving. Eating, reading, putting on makeup, looking for something (like a CD) and on and on. These are all more distractions than holding a cellphone but they're not illegal. Well, they probably are but it's harder to catch someone. It's much easier to see someone using a cellphone and get revenue by giving them a ticket. That's what it's all about you know, money. Just like seatbelts. Why should I have to wear a seatbelt when I'm in the car by myself if I don't want to? I'm not endangering anyone but myself. That's my choice, like drinking (not while driving) or smoking or whatever other act is harmful to my health. Again, it's easy to catch people and it brings in money.
