I do concede that some drivers get immersed in the phone conversation to
the detriment of driving .
Has anyone watched the tests of phone use on a track ? How many stop
using the phone when negotiating cones or emergencies as a sensible user
would, do they use psychological tricks to keep the subject talking on
the phone?
Pilots are taught: Aviate, navigate, communicate.
I don't know what a cute corollary is for driving, but the concept is
universal to operating any dangerous machinery.
