True, tough to enforce, but needed I think. New drivers have enough distractions and don't need cell phones taking their attention off the road, and driving into you or causing an accident. In my opinion, the only way you should be allowed to talk on the phone in your car, if you are the driver, is through hands free. This would reduce the risk of a driver being distracted due to cell phone use. It should be law for every driver and not just novice ones.
P.S. That is just my opinion, and it's been my opinion since people started driving while using cell phones. I used to have a job where I was required to carry a cell phone and blackberry (on call) while driving and answer it. I refused and would pull over every time I needed to answer the phone or respond to an email from the blackberry.
It is not safe to drive while on a cell phone. This is one of the reasons why my insurance is astronomical, ie: due to people not paying attention to the roads and causing accindents.
