Does you state ban cellphone use while driving?

What is the big deal using a hands-free device while driving? Whether it is blue-tooth, corded hands-free or speaker phone it is clearly better than gabbing away distracted with one hand on the wheel. In CT it is illegal to use a cell phone while driving unless you use a hands-free. I can't tell you how many yahoo's have cut me off or not seen me due to their very important cell phone conversations. I have no interest in getting wrecked due to a cell phone conversation.

It is banned in several other states and many many countries including Japan, Germany, France, the UK etc etc.

Texting while driving is completely moronic....like reading a newspaper or a woman putting on makeup while driving!

I'm sure this one incident is not the only reason this bill was proposed in MA.
