Cellular Phones As Harmful As Tobacco?

Cell phones can lead to car accidents, but the main difference between cell phones and tobacco is addiction. I don't think cell phones are addictive.

Last, but certainly not least. It isn’t the brightest idea in the world to talk on your cell phone and drive. A 1997 New England Journal of Medicine showed that talking on your cell phone increases your risk of death by 400 percent. Since car accidents are the number one cause of death for most of us, why risk it? Please understand this statistic is unrelated to having a hands free operation; however, in my opinion, even if you aren’t dialing, you are at risk because your focus and concentration is not on the road but on the phone.
