I'm writing a research article on driving distractions. I'm specifically focusing on the percieved risk of using a cellphone while driving.
If you use your phone while driving and would like to contribute, please respond to the following questions..

1) Do you consider the time saved by multitasking behind the wheel vital to your carrer or livelihood?

2) In your opinion, is your ability to drive safely hampered by talking on the phone? Explain.

3) Have you ever had a "near-hit" (or an accident) while driving and using your cellphone? If so, did you consider the cell-phone to be a contributory factor?

4) What is your impression of the media's response to the issue of distracted driving?
Is the risk blown out of proportion?

5) Are the current laws regulating the use of cell phones behind the wheel too strict, or is further legal action needed?
