U.S. Safety Board Urges Cellphone Ban for Drivers

 This is an important issue. It will certainly save lives but will also cause conflicts with people that make a living by the phone.

A missed call can mean a missed sale and most people do not wait for long when they intend to buy. If you are not available they will call the next one on their list. Then there is the outside person who is hiding for some reason and will use driving as an excuse for not answering the cell call.



Lives are certainly more important than any sale or any other phone call. This will be an interesting battle.

 U.S. Safety Board Urges Cellphone Ban for Drivers


 A federal agency on Tuesday called for a ban on all cellphone use by drivers — the most far-reaching such recommendation to date — saying its decision was based on a decade of investigations into distraction-related accidents, as well as growing concerns that powerful mobile devices are giving drivers even more reasons to look away from the road.
