I'd make it illegal, and see what happens to a person's insurance when he/she gets in an accident while gabbing to someone he/she didn't really need to be gabbing to in the first place.
I think some people have an exagerated sense of entitlement while behind the wheel. I know one guy who had a freaking DVD and TV screen installed in the front of the car!

All of those above can be encompassed by the wreckless driving statues. If an officer sees you arguing with your passenger and not paying attention to the road, you can be cited for wreckless driving. Same if you are eating a hamburger etc.
