I talk when I am walking. I won't when I'm driving though. I guess I'm not that talented, but honestly it ticks me off to see people driving on the phone. Most of the time they aren't even paying attention to the road. They should ban that. It would prevent a lot of car wrecks.

I dont do that, but if I have to I stand in the end of the road and attend the call. But I have seen so many doing that, while crossing the road or railway track too. When we hear of the accidents, it is quite heartening.

I usually don't walk and talk on the cellphone with friends or family. If my someone call or when I need to talk to someone on the cellphone I will stop somewhere before using the phone.

When I take my dogs for a walk, I talk sometimes, especially if my kids need to talk to me for one thing or another. I don't walk in the street though. I walk on the sidewalk so that isn't as dangerous. I don't walk where there aren't any sidewalks. Have a very good day, and happy mylotting.

Its very very risky to talk on the cellphone when walking on a street, especially crossing the roads. I have been constantly warned by my friends and family members not to do so. I generally avoid this and in case my acquaintances realise tht I am on a street while talking to them, they immediately ask me to disconnect the line! I would strongly advise everyone here not to follow this practise as it diverts our attention and could result in an accident.
