More critical thinking skills

I've heard mention of a study indicating that it is more distracting to drive with an infant in a car seat than it is to drive using a cell phone. Anyone know more? Please point me to the study.

(I'd love to see one on talking to other people inside the car, too. Actual data, not conjecture or anecdote.)

Yeah, it's damned distracting driving with an infant on board. Unless said infant is asleep. Studies on this would be interesting.

Of course, sometimes you have to take an infant somewhere, and it's too far to walk. Whereas it's usually possible to at least pull over to the side of the road before you make or take a phone call.
