There oughta be a law banning this or that - and many times there is.
As more and more jurisdictions are passing laws banning the use of cellphones (or at least holding in your hand while using on it) for calls, texting, or emailing while driving, we need to ask ourselves if they have gone far enough.
There are so many other unregulated activites that could cause a driver's attention to wander.
We should prohibit listening to the radio, adjusting stations, playing CDs on the built-in player or portable device, talking with passengers, daydreaming, singing, putting on lipstick, using an electric razor, playing the guitar, eating a hamburger, drinking a softdrink or coffee, chewing gum, looking at billboards, thinking about the appointment we are driving to, and anything else that distracts us from our driving.
Now that I think about it, we probably should ban driving altogether.
