Do you suppose then that when someone is driving a car they NEVER take their hands off the wheel even for a fraction of a second? Perhaps to sneeze? Or to change gear?
Raising your hand to press a small button on a headset to answer a call surely takes no more time than taking your left hand off the wheel to change gear?
There's such a thing as taking this too far. Pretty soon it will be illegal to talk to the person sitting next to the driver because that's distracting.

Hi guys, I have always wondered if bluetooth headsets are totally safe using in cars?. If a car driver is wearing a bluetooth headset whilst driving his or her motor car, and a call comes in. How on earth can the driver answer the call safely. The driver should have both hands on the steering wheel at all times. In that case, as the driver would have to raise one hand in the general direction of the headset in order to answer the incoming call. It cannot be total safe.Billy
