Idk. I don’t have a car. I still turn my phone off for 24-48 hours at a time because I enjoyed the ways things were before cell phones existed. I applaud people who pull over to take a phone call instead of using hands free talking. I am also curious if something like this might significantly reduce deaths due to inattentive driving or not.
I am absolutely saying that your claim that conversing is nearly as dangerous as looking at your phone, is total nonsense. And your link doesn't do anything to support your claim.
Have you tried looking for any information that challenges what you believe? It's relatively trivial to find many other sources supporting my claim and the claim you're responding to. The first paragraph in the wikipedia article... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mobile_phones_and_driving_safe...
