Driving is a very complex task, and in my humble opinion deserves ones full attention.
You are of course correct...mobile phone use during driving is high risk and is cited in a significant number (~20%) of fatal and non fatal distraction accidents.
Some studies put you at 4 times more likely to have an accident while talking on a mobile phone with reaction times on a par with driving under the influence of alcohol.
