I read awhile ago that auto radios are also a distraction with the many settings etc and that there was an effort to make their operation much simpler.
It's the distraction not the fact that you are holding something. Why isn't smoking and lighting it prohibited?

Auto radios...yeah, what ever happened to 2 knobs and a row of buttons? Easily operated with your eyes on the road. I have mixed feelings on this one about cell phones. I don't have a cell, don't want one. But, I also favor individual liberty. It's a shame that so many people mess up liberty by abusing it. Not long ago, Cindy & I were passed by a "lady" in a suburban. She was talking on her cell while eating french fries, looked like she was steering with her knees? She sure didn't have a hand on the wheel...scared the crap out of me, watching her weave...
