There is no such thing as "an automobile driver with

First, anyone who claims cellphones raise the accident rate, is a moron.
(see below for the reason why I say that with confidence)

 
Over here, the law says it is forbidden to use a phone while driving,
without a hands free system. And even with such a system it recommends
to keep the conversation to a minimum, and is justified by causing
accidents.

  In our country (NL) there are similar laws and we *know* that use of
mobile phones causes accidents, including with severe injury and death
(like 4 people in a (other) car), because we keep detailed stats on
circumstances, cause, etc..

  'Andrew' seems to have some problems with statistics, because the
accident rate not going up (BTW, it *does* go up in our country) doesn't
mean that use of mobile phones doesn't cause accidents (to anyone with a
somewhat functioning brain, it's blatantly obvious that it does). *Why*
he can't draw (t)his erronous conclusion, has been explained to him all
the previous times his silly claim came up. Some people learn, others
don't.

You are free to call the lawmakers and the entire police system morons.

  When 'Andrew' starts insulting, everyone knows he has no case, but
can't handle/admit that fact.
