Hopefully that wasn't too off topic.

CA bans it, unless you have a handsfree device.

And I got my license at 18, after getting a lot of my driving practice (on my learner's permit) on the Southern CA freeways.

I've seen my share of accidents, mostly those I wasn't in. You have to drive safely, even when nobody else is.
