Bus + Cell Phone = Dead Pedestrian 2650On Thu, 22 Sep 2005 07:01:49 -0700, Bill Funk Depends on what you have to do to use it, and what you're driving. It's not a CB where you don't even have to...
You are wrong. Probably your reactions are slower, and you project your limitations to others, and think that everyone should be restricted to the lowest common denominator. My reaction times have been tested on the track and in combat. You, and anyone else who talks about driving and talking on the radio, as a limitation, have the problem. You are limited, and think that others are.
Read the book, "The Right Stuff."
The fact that you cut everything that I had to say, says something also.
Did you notice that Michael Schumacher "yaks" on the radio while driving a Ferrari Formula One? Did you notice that I monitored and talked on four radios in helicopters and Jeeps in combat? No, you missed that. You think that everybody is the same, like you. Guess what? Everybody is not the same.
John Glenn picked Ted Williams to be his wing man in Korea because Williams had the best eye-hand coordination ever seen in the USMC. Guess what? They both flew fighters and talked on the radio at the same time. Guess what? A bunch of us have driven things and talked on the radio at the same time. I'm guessing you have not done that.
Read what miniscule piece of my post that you left. You are blaming a piece of equipment for human limitations. Your limitations. You, and everyone else, that have not been tested, should have a limitation on your driving license to preclude driving and talking on a radio.
