I call BS on that, or having passengers talking to you cause accidents.
According to studies, passengers can observe when it is safe to talk and therefore conversations with them are less of a risk than conversations on a cell phone.
Ham radio operators talk on the radio all the time and dont have accidents at that rate, Semi truck drivers use a CB heavily and also dont.
I don't think you're interpreting the results correctly. Of all the accidents Ham radio operators or truck-drivers get into, what percentage involve their radio(s)? That's the question.
