  if you answer a phonecall while driving, get distracted, and kill a child in the process, would you just be fine with that? act like you drove over a beetle and just go on with your day?

  So when mum calls to ask if we need milk, she’sa villain!

  It’s all about levels.

  It’s entirely different to have a 30 second conversation about picking up milk compared to joining a work meeting.

  Especially when that work meeting is a video call that is distracting the driver (they are looking at the phone in the picture).

  There are definitely those that would ban all phone calls when driving.
