Dear Queenie,
My husband talks on the phone and sometimes even reads text messages while he is driving if there is no other traffic.
Queenie, is this legal?—Worried wife
Dear Wife,
Of course, it is not legal! And it is very dangerous.
A driver should always have his eyes and his full attention on the road, even if there is no other traffic. There is always the possibility of a stray animal or other object running/falling/rolling/blowing across the road, or a pothole, that might cause him to lose control if he is the least bit distracted.
