Using mobile phone when driving

I quite often see drivers with their phone in their hand, waiting at traffic.
They're not using it, they simply cannot bear to put it down.

I think this is the crux of the matter-its "device addiction". So many users feel unhappy/insecure unless permanently "connected". It was only 30 years ago we all managed pretty well. They have their uses & I wouldnt want to be without mine but I quite happily put it in my pocket when Im driving/riding.
My granddaughters aged 5 & 9 cant be without their ipads/whatever unless I take them out somewhere & we do old fashioned things like talking to each other face to face!

A perfect example of device addiction.
