The NTSB will then have to ban: talking
The studies on which they're basing their decision specifically find talking on a phone to be much more distracting than talking to a passenger.
- windexh8er 15y agoHow about a screaming child in the back seat with only the driver in the car? Maybe that child is old enough to unbuckle themselves. Is that more distracting than talking to passengers? I find it odd that people feel they will be safer with legislation like this. The NTSB is making their point through scenario specific testing and while it is interesting research it doesn't reflect other real world situations that may be even more distracting than phones.
