There is no law here in Florida regarding drivers using mobile 'phones. The number of people I see on Interstates (Motorways) using them is beyond belief. Last night on my way home there was a driver in the fast lane, doing 5 mph under the limit, no-one in front of him for over a mile, talking on his 'phone. He was going along at the same speed as traffic in the two other lanes with a great buildup of traffic behind. I think hands free devices are good and bluetooth allows you to connect etc. without using your hands. I really think that in-car telephone conversations should be limited to that.
