Not a smart move, but not any dumber than the stupid things people do every day...and they still make it home in one piece. (OMG :o ).

I honestly think that the fact that I won't usually answer my phone while I'm driving makes me safer than thoe of you that do...even taking into consideration that I've raced from a stoplight 3 or 4 times in my life...
Ok, I was trying to help you out earlier without directly pointing it out, but its barren, unless of course you mean driving on roads that are ruled by old German nobles.

Also, I've seen you at the track. I don't know if I trust your judgement of whats smart to do on the road or not (btw, thats a joke, since I also spun that day).
