Answer:
Mississippi does not ban conversations using cellular phone while driving. However, learner's permit and intermediate license holders are prohibited from sending or receiving text while driving.
Generally, using cell phones while driving distracts drivers to a great extent. Texting is even more distracting because texting causes a driver to take his/her eyes off the road in contrast to talking on the mobile while driving where the driver though distracted need not take his eyes off the road (except when dialling). Text messaging is banned for all drivers in 14 states and the District of Columbia.
