Jump to conclusions much? Equating having a cellphone holder to using a cellphone while driving is like saying since I have a knife I'm using it for stabbing someone....
Don't get me wrong, I abhor people who text and drive, and feel the same way about people who don't make a cell call with a handsfree device. However there are valid reasons to have a cellphone holder and mount.
I have had a cellphone holder in all of my cars in the last 8-10 years. I need a safe location to plugin my phone so that it can charge and not slide around all over the car. Having the screen viewable also allows the phone to be used as a nav device in vehicles that don't have built-in nav. I've also had cars that had bluetooth but didn't show the CallerID. Having the phone visible allows one to see who the incoming call is from so that one can decide to pull off the road to take or return the call.
