Question unable to call a person who sent me sms (via comand)

when i read a text/sms on the comand display from someone
in my address book, i'm unable to call them directly from that screen.

Only when it's someone who's not in my book can i do this
(because in that case it shows a number & not a name).

Am i missing something here or is this a "bug"...?

i've got an iphone 5s (setting "sync contacts" = on)

Doesn't your phone read you the text messages? You should not be reading them on the screen while driving...

There's too much texting and driving these days. It's very dangerous and highly annoying.

I don't think safe driving was the topic of this thread, nor the intent of the OP with the question. Maybe y'all should start a thread of your own about the dangers of texting while driving?
