No, you're not. So people changing the radio station get charged because the cop couldn't tell what function they were bringing up on the system. Those voice controlled systems are often more distracting while driving than typing in an address while stopped at a light. Again, a knee-jerk law that doesn't take enough into consideration.

Pretty hard when the phone is locked in the trunk like the police tell us to do, because.. you know, we're all incapable of having it sitting next to us without using it.
