NY has had a hands-free law for years--it was the first state to enact one. I wish I had a buck for everytime I got stuck behind some numbnuts driving 45 in the left lane, wrapped up in his/her hands-free conversation. I wouldn't have had to move out of there in the first place.

Mike if I take my left hand off the wheel for 3 mins for any reason that's 3 mins I'm driving at a disadvantage.Two hands on the wheel simply put is safer than one on the wheel.Period.

As far as being behind some "numbnut" on a handsfree unit going 45mph with both hands on the wheel,I'll take that over some a-hole pulling out into traffic anyday with only one hand on the wheel any %$%$%$%$ing day.
