That's using your cell phone, dumb arse.


How is changing music on a cell phone different from changing music on a radio screen? Why is one "specifically" illegal and the other only possibly deemed distracted driving. Before you go that route, I understand that both are distracting actions but why the frick do we need a law specifically for cell phones. What if I had my laptop on the passenger seat and was typing an email?

You can't be serious, right? People fricking take selfies and Snapchatting while they are driving.

I'm glad someone asked this question. IMHO it's a good one.

That said, they're both still distractions. You're driving a multiton vehicle. Yes, changing the radio station is a distraction even though legal.
