It amazes me to see these road talkers get all worked up, and wave their hands while on the cell phone, taking both hands off the wheel to describe a LENGTH or WIDTH to the person on the other end...

Last week I saw lady, sorry, its true, with cell phone in one hand, and the other, a lit cigarette AND cup of coffee!! Sheesh.

Headsets help, but I agree, its still distracting, especially during important calls.
