EOC is not inherently dangerous, however driving while distracted is. That traffic light did not appear out of nowhere, it only seemed that way because you were not paying attention.
If the phone going off is distracting, you would be well advised to turn it off when driving.
That said, I normally EOC 4 to 9 times in my three mile commute to work. I mostly bump start, sometimes key start.
