Coversing with passengers in-depth (you know, something more than "where do you want to go to lunch?") is also dangerously distracting. So is swatting at the kids in the back seat, diddling the dog, fumbling for a new CD, and so forth.
In other words, FOCUS ON DRIVING.

Doesn't really matter whether it's in depth or not. Even if it doesn't require thinking people still usually look over at other people when talking to them.
Some people like to use hand gestures while talking to passengers as well.
My point is that people like to complain about cell phones, when talking to passengers is way more distracting.
