People talking on their phones become a danger to everyone and they travel and talk. They become distracted and cause accidents.

Having a gun in the car does not make you dangerous. You have the ability to become dangerous but as you travel down the road it is highly unlikely.

He said a survey done several years ago showed that more than one out of every seven people questioned admitted they actually have weapons in their cars.
"ADMITTED", as though it were a grave sin. And "ACTUALLY", as though it is the most shocking thing the reporter has ever heard. Just brilliant!

A percentage of 602 people? Hardly a proper poll to determine the method of weapon carry in a vehicle.

Phoenix has about 1.6 million legal residents, a proper poll would have to be at least 10% of the population, for a poll.
