I won't use my cellphone anymore while driving! It is to dangerous! I do have the habits of digging in my purse for something I'm looking for! The second one is writing down stuff on a note pad while driving! It always seems I need to make lists to write down! I should wait to do it when I'm not driving but if I was more patient that would be a different story!

I don't talk on my cell ever while driving. Blue....put the notebook away. that is almost as dangerous as texting while driving. Your list is not going to be much good if you get hurt in a car crash. I have done the purse fishing thing and even that can be not good. Usually I'm searching for something like my lighter or chapstick or something. Which brings me to ...I smoke while driving. Not a problem as a rule until the end drops off or I want a cig. and they have dropped to the floor and I try to reach while driving. I actually have learned to be much more careful after a couple of close calls while doing these things. notebook....hide it. ok?

I guess the worse thing that I do while driving is eating and drinking a coke while I'm driving. I don't eat anything that takes two hands, so I eat with one hand and drive with the other.

I have done that alot over the years! I know it isn't the safest thing to do but I think most people do this!

i don't drive anymore after one very bad incident in the past. it is my oldest son who is driving the car for us on sundays to church. he uses it to school where he works and to the hospital for his hospital duty. i always remind him not to use his cellphone while driving but he sometimes doesn't listen. he realized that it is not wise and good to just disregard what parents tell u what to do. he learned it the hard way ... he bumped a passenger jeepney real hard that it did a great damage to our car. it is too dangerous to be distracted while driving. it is never wise to use the cellphone nor do anything while driving.

There is something you must not do while driving is pick up something which has fallen on the floor of your car while driving.I have had practical experience which was not at all pleasant- I hit a lamp post and broke my left wrist in three places.Smoking is another thing you should not do.You tend to be careless and might give someone burns or burn up the upholstery of the car.I have seen it happen.So beware!

I only pick something off the floor if I'm a stop light or sign. I wouldn't dare try that other wise! I don't smoke and that is a good thing!

I actually do not do a whole lot of anything while driving, other than driving and watching the road. I panic if I need to do something else while driving. It is very distracting.
