but my phone microphone can be used during a call with car audio
Why don't you stick your phone in your pocket or a cupholder and then make that phone call.
it's mounted on the dash
you're really not getting the whole "car speakers, phone microphone" setup, are you
Not legal in several areas.
in which places is a dash-mounted phone illegal?
New York and California, to name a few.
But that's beside the point. YOU are allowed to use YOUR phone microphone if YOU want. And in that same vein, OTHERS are allowed to use THEIR built-in hands-free systems. You don't have to like it. But acting like a gatekeeper and soapboxing over it is just weird.
nah you're the one being weird here
