Richmond - The Editor, Re: "Distracted drivers paying price," News, Feb, 7. The weekend paper advises that even hands-free phones aren't safe when driving.The logical conclusion from that statement is we shouldn't allow any passengers either.

The weekend paper advises that even hands-free phones aren't safe when driving.The logical conclusion from that statement is we shouldn't allow any passengers either.When you have passengers you talk to them.Unlike with hands-free, when you keep your eyes on the road, when you have passengers,you inevitably turn to talk to them, taking your eyes off the road. It's human nature and how we've been trained. You also tend to utilize your hands for gestures when chatting live with someone.Oops, another no-no. Let's get passengers out of the cars and close down the HOV lanes so we are all safer.Bob GarnettRichmond
