Driving While Celling

Should the state prohibit the use of cell phones while driving? Blue Mass. Group is having a little internal debate (and you're all invited):

David: Let's ban more stuff!:

... Attractive and scantily-clad pedestrians of either sex shall at all times remain at least 50 feet away from the roads. If such persons desire to cross the street, they shall cover themselves up before doing so in keeping with the Puritan traditions of this Commonwealth. ...

Bob would agree:

... The Globe and Representative J. James Marzilli Jr. of Arlington should spend less time telling people how to live their lives and more time advocating solutions that directly advance the noble goals, like traffic safety, they profess. ...

Charley begs to differ:

... Of course we should be careful not to let government unnecessarily impinge on our freedoms. But we can't deny that our fates are interconnected. Driving is one of those areas where social interaction is pretty tightly controlled -- for everyone's manifest benefit. Just put down the phone, and slowly back away.
