Default The cellphone paradox - where are all the accidents?

I think you consistently fail to comprehend that the *more*
you show *studies* that purport to indicate the dangers of
cellphone driving, the *LARGER* the paradox looms, since there
is no evidence whatsoever in the governments' own statistics,
of an increased rate of accidents in the USA concomitant with
the skyrocketing cellphone ownership rates.

You can't just invalidate the most accurate statistics on the
topic just because you don't like (or understand) the logic.

If all these scare-tactics articles are actually correct, then
the paradox looms larger than ever, because the accident rate
simply has not risen. Period.

So, the *answer* to the conundrum is still open as to why, and
the articles are expected to help answer why - but the articles
can't possibly change the answer on the accident rates (because
that is a fact).

You may as well propose that the sun revolves around the earth,
just because it seems to you that it does.
