Personally I've never understood the talking on a mobile phone issue. Texting yes because they take their eyes off the road for extended periods of time. The two arguments I see thrown around for talking is firstly, your hand off the steering wheel. Okay, so we should also ban car stereos, air conditioning, window controls, manuals, tip Tornio autos, etc. Secondly is that it is the conversation, well we must ban talking in cars then! And if it is truly the conversation then why is hands free allowed? Like I said earlier, texting, etc. on the phone I understand banning but talking on the phone makes zero sense to me when it comes to the bans.
