So you drive with the radio off? Nobody talking to you? No food or drink? Dont look at the landscape on a country back road? Dont rubber neck to see accidents? Highly doubt it.

So unless you dont do any of the above, its absolutely no different than taking a call on a phone. Talking through a cell phone is literally the same as putting one hand on your ear and talking to the person sitting in the passenger side seat.:rofl
