So how many times will you post that link, and make the point that if its so bad why don't the government ban it?
If you are not paying attention/distracted at what point does the distraction become total? Proof being I'm watching tele and messing around on the internet.
It is banned??
there is no such think as total distraction, it's about the effect on your reaction times and your concentration levels. every person is different.
Some people who have slept badly could find making a decision on a busy road junction with a number of conflicting signs a serious challenge. enough to take all their concentration and for the entire approach to that junction fail to look in their mirrors, and fail to signal. this is fatal!
There is no fine for absent minded drivers as it can't be measured. but taking away obvious distractions that require usage of any of the senses is pretty straight forward thinking
