Any thoughts on this? Personally I can't see the difference between talking to someone on a hands free and having a conversation with a passenger in a car. But I imagine that driving while holding a mobile to your ear is something that plod will start cracking down on soon? It's amazing the number of people who you see doing it.

There's a lot of numpties out there who probably aren't capable of making that decision evidenced by the number of people you see negotiating roundabouts & junctions with a phone to their ear
