3. About the coffee thing

I can see that it could affect someone's driving if they spill or something. I bring my travel mug with me when I start my Monday morning 5 a.m. drive to Denver, and I don't really think it's a distraction. It's spillproof, it's ready, it's in my cup holder, and I only take a sip when there is NO traffic around me. It doesn't require taking my eyes off the road. At that time of the day, wildlife is always a concern, so I keep vigilant.

My adult sons think that it's okay to use hands-free devices while driving. I've ridden with them when they've done it, and it's terrifying.
