Some very good observations have been made to refute the claims of the dangers (phones, not amateur radio). Drive in downtown "any city" during commute hours and see the distracted drivers with the cellphones make movements which are dangerous. While some folks are a hazard if they are driving while talking, some are a hazard without cellphones. We notice the folks who are driving poorly while on phones, but we don't notice those that can do the activities well. The notice of inept drivers using phones does not prove that all drivers using phones are hazards, nor does it prove that the phones were the cause of the noticed drivers problems. Mobile amateur radio would benefit from a program teaching operators how to be safe during mobile operation. It would be far more useful than banning mobile operation. Alan |
