From the article:
Now with all the bike riders out there trying to get bike laws passed to "share the road", but they don't want to follow the same traffic laws. This is one of those situations. If you're riding a bike, the LAST thing you need to be doing is playing with your phone. You shouldn't text and drive (which is illegal in many states) and you really shouldn't text and ride. I've been hit once by a bike rider playing with his phone (dash cam caught the whole thing) and he tried to say I pulled forward and hit him.
Now, what that being said, I've used iOttie on my bikes and they do work......but there's always that fear the bands will break.
The only one I've used reliably on my road and mountain bike that I don't even think about breaking is QuadLock.
