Exactly why it makes zero sense these laws. You are completing the exact same action one way or another. If you sync to the car and just hold your epmty hand to your damn ear, how is that any different than talking through the phone than a mic and speakers in your car???

If the sync could text that would be awesome! keyboard on the touch screen, maybe even a heads up display on the windshield you you dont even need to look away, voice to text. send it.
