Cell Phone + Driving = Wreck Waiting To Happen !!!!!

I know the cell phone has become an important asset in life and most people think they couldn't live without it. I just wish these people could wear our shoes for a day and go to some of these wreck scenes where the driver was talking or texting on their cell phone. I know this will probably piss some of you off but I wish the law would outlaw the use of cell phones while your driving. It's pretty simple, your driving a vehicle, not a phone booth.
As a driver-pump operator we are not allowed to even have one in the truck. The driver don't even use the radio. That's the co-pilots job, the driver concentrates on driving. I'm just wondering how many fatalities it's going to take for this to stop.

I took the Emergency Vehicle Operations Course at the State of GA Academy last year and they were telling us that the #1 cause of accidents were people eating while driving, Cell Phones was #2. Either way it is inattentive driving to me. Yall be safe out there!!
