Some people have the ability to multi-task. Pilots are a good example as are police officers. Pilots must guide their aircraft by maintaining course in three directions (not just one like a car)while at the same time communicating with ATC and managing a multitude of instruments. Obviously doable but only with hours of training. Others unfortunately cannot walk and chew gum at the same time. Putting them behind the wheel is dangerous enough. Putting a cell phone and other gadgets at their disposal is a disaster waiting to happen. Put up your cell phones while in a moving vehicle. Get a blue-tooth headset or a car with blue-tooth. And most of all, yield when you hear sirens and see flashing lights. I agree. Some people have the ability to multi-task. Pilots are a good example as are police officers.
