Is Nextel a Mobile Phone?

IIRC, there was considerable discussion on the level of attention required of the driver between full and half duplex.

Personally, I think appropriate methods of cell and radio wireless should be allowed. An endorsement on your DL perhaps, but technology can make this do-able. The interface is poor, and not enough adoption of headsets by drivers. I still like the better wired ones as well as Bluetooth.

What if cellphones quit working over 10 mph or so unless a proper headset was attached, measured by GPS, and when located on a road?

That would mean passengers would be under the same restriction.

Yes it would, including bus passengers, etc. But if it ensured greater adoption of hands free cell use, so what?

What's wrong with enforcing the hands free law for drivers? If needed, increase the penalty to revocation of license at first offense. No need to penalize everyone for a few stupid people.
