The law that says you must not eat, drink, mobile or change gear. You have no true control with one hand on the wheel.
Surely then that must mean radios
Changing CDs?

Why do we have to change gear and drive one-handed. Time to change the law.
I'll rise to the bait,what law would that be?
Time to change the law to stop the use of manual cars. Surely even you know there isn't one at the moment.
So one hand on the wheel is safer than 2? Ok to eat apples and talk on phones then.

It takes longer to change a radio station and put a window down than to change gear.

OK - here's the scenario. You are driving in Wales up and down really twisty roads. You are having to change up and down all the time. You go around a twisty section, you are changing gear and are suddenly confronted by a cow (or pothole). You only have one hand on the wheel instead of two. How is that 'in control'?
Not as much as changing gearsThe law that says you must not eat, drink, mobile or change gear. You have no true control with one hand on the wheel.
Surely then that must mean radios , window winders or switches or anything that requires the hand to be removed momentarily should be banned then?
Even hands free phones are more of a hazard than changing gear in a manual vehical.
