I think what they're driving at here (no pun intended) is that you cannot make the yakker on the other end of the cellphone SHUT UP when a gravel truck looms at you and you're trying to remember the phone number the yakker is giving you for that million dollar sale appointment (and be polite) while you miss the life-saving manoeuvre and die.
Were the a yakker in the seat beside you, the yakker would shut up, grab the wheel, and make the evasive manoeuver while you were drinking your coffee and changing the track on your CD player.
I think it's good law. I've seen too many distracted cell-yakkers in SUVs etc beside me and behind me...even across from me....and observed their focus and attention to honestly say otherwise.
