This thread is just about stupid and ignorant enough to qualify for A&S.
Well, when I do drive it's usually a stick shift, so I would absolutely tell my boss that I couldn't have the conversation then. Or if the conversation had to happen then, I would absolutely pull over. If there were consequences, I'd defend my decision, to someone higher-up if necessary. But really... how often do you think your case actually happens? I maintain that the vast majority of these conversations can wait.

It is a distraction and it is unsafe - this is well documented. All the attempted justification in the world doesn't make it OK.
