Should car drivers be prohibited from using cellphones while driving?

It should be banned to use cellphone while driving specially if he or she is sending text messages and reading text messges. Answering a call would be fine if the person is using a headset. I really hate if I ride in public transportation and the driver is using his cellphone. He is not thinking of his passengers anymore. It is 99 percent accidents will occur because of that. Specially in my country, it is a city of text messages. Anywhere you are you can see people texting. My goodness!

I think texting should definitely be banned while driving. Although some may say that they can do both at the same time, I still think it's very dangerous. Making phone calls is okay since you can use a headset anyway or you can hold your phone with one hand and still keep your eyes on the road. Unlike with texting, you have to look at the road and the phone alternately and that's very scary. I once got into a cab whose driver kept on texting and I was praying the whole time.

yes i do and im glad its against the law (even tho people still do it). it really takes your attention off the road. ive seen more drivers then one about run into someone because they was to busy talking on the phone. it dont hurt to pull over if you need to talk that bad

Ya, we should becareful when driving beside we use cellphone. we can stop for a while when we wanna use cellphone. so it will safe.
