I rarely do, but I get off the phone in minutes. I've almost been hit quite a few times by drivers talking away on their cells. It makes me wonder what could be more important that paying attention to cars going 55+ miles an hour around them. And to Baha Joe, the reason CB's are legal is because noone is arguing with there signifigant other, or talking about something utterly ridiculous and distracting such as boys, clothes, sex, drugs, etc on a CB.

To get around the law I have wired my cell phone to operate thru my CB. If this is truly a safety issue CB's will have to be outlawed and then a lot of truckers and cops will be lawbreakers!
