I know you're going to get flamed for this but I agree it's possible to drive and talk in a safe manner.
ie, I'll drive and use the phone but if I approach a merge lane I often tell the person on the other line to hold on while I put the phone down so I can concentrate on merging.
IMO, the law for driving while on the phone, or for that matter driving while distracted, is already in place. It's called "driving without due care and attention".
If the government feels they need to put more laws in place, so be it. After all the government always knows what's best for the people right?
