Me with android auto and Bluetooth loudspeaker: hold my beer
Calling with a hands free device isn’t any safer. The danger isn’t holding something in your hand. It’s having a conversation with someone who isn’t there
Why is that more dangerous than a conversation with someone who is there?
It’s generally just a bad idea to distract yourself while operating a two tonne machine that can go 120 km/h. Studies have shown that talking while driving at all significantly reduces your situational awareness and reaction speed.
Someone in the car reacts to what the driver is doing. Pausing the conversation when making a turn and that kind of thing
Inb4 AI that manages the call for you by delaying responses, etc (and whoever tries first will probably screw it up badly)
