From a Firefighters point of view I personally check the were abouts of the drivers cell phone as soon as is practical when I get to a scene. You'd be surprised how man phones are up on the dash near the windshield's or on the floor still opened and connected to a call.
And now the sad truth about why cell phones will never be illegal behind the wheel. Most law makers use there phones while driving and they wouldn't want to make a law that would mess it up for them.
( I know a bit about law makers.
