However, the basis for prohibiting cell phones actually goes a lot further than a simple comparison of cell phone use by drivers and every other possible driving distraction. Specifically, the most recent neurological evidence suggests that talking on a cell phone is actually much more of a distraction than talking to someone in person.

Apparently, the human brain uses entirely different mechanisms to conduct in-person conversations from the mechanisms used to conduct in-person conversations. Therefore, it is the act of having a conversation with someone who is not present that is the problem rather than the physical act of manipulating the phone keypad. Opponents still object to the imposition of such restrictions and a violation of personal freedoms.

The final argument against cell phone use while driving is...

...

Apart from actual safety issues, people who are engaged in conversations are less likely to conduct themselves considerately on the road: they may take their time at stop lights or drive slower, impeding other drivers whose right to the road is the same as theirs. Opponents of this argument suggests that it is impossible to legislate consideration for other in driving just as in other aspects of life. Conclusion:
The strongest basis for prohibiting cell phone use while driving is that it is associated with increased accident risks. If the evidence that cell phone conversations are equally dangerous whether or not the driver uses a hands-free device is true, that justifies the outright ban on all cell phone use while driving, except for emergency phone calls.

Cell Phone and the Brain Cell phone usage has become part of daily life for many Americans. As with any new technology, health risks associated with cell phones are not always apparent and take time to surface. As popularity of this technology increases, so does the research surrounding this topic. One concern leading to an increase in research surrounding this topic is the amount of radiation emitted by a mobile device.

All of these aspects increased the usage levels and acceptance of cell phones. Third generation or 3G technology refers essentially to the most recent technological innovations in cell phone technology.

In 2002, researchers partnered with the cell phone industry to conduct significant scientific studies on the health risks of cell phones. The FDA supported many studies in response to public concerns that radiation from cell phones may pose health risks. The contract between the FDA and the Cellular Telecommunications Industry Association (CTIA) allows the FDA to select scientists and oversee the projects, while the CTIA provides funding.

Virtually any observation of people in public would reveal two very distinctive styles of cell phone use. There is one category of user who seems to make every possible effort to conduct cell phone conversations discretely and without unnecessarily broadcasting the content of their conversations to strangers. Unfortunately, there seems to be a much greater preponderance of the second category of user: those who seem to do the exact opposite,
