Look, Ma! No hands!

So here's a picture of me driving down the freeway.....right after I.....made a cell phone call while driving! I know, I know, it is now illegal in California (and quite a few other states) to make a cell call while driving and not use a hands-free device. Well, sometimes, you just need to make a very brief call to see if someone is home, or what they want for dinner, and so on. I used to feel indifferent making these quick calls while driving around, never giving it a second thought, feeling nice and confident while driving. However, now when making these calls, I feel like my make focus of attention is on looking out for a law enforcement vehicle. Now that these calls are ticketable, I feel like my driving has become more dangerous rather than more safe, as I'm sure that the law makers intended. If I crash or get a ticket, I blame them!
