A recent study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration suggests that drivers who use hands-free cellphone adapters are actually no safer behind the wheel than drivers who hold the phone with one hand and steer with the other.
From a report in The New York Times.

Speaking as one who has been rear-ended twice by people yakking on cell phones, and both times while I was sitting at a red light in long lines of stopped cars,it’s not the use of the hands that is often creating the hazard. It’s the use of the brain for something other than driving that is the problem.
