I’m not denying that it isn’t safe. It’s not. But neither is 100 other things we do behind the wheel like pick our nose, change the radio station, look at the navigation screen to see the map, look in the rear view mirror (hell, in that split second, something in front of you could happen). We ALL do things that could be ‘bad’. My point is that A LOT of things are as dangerous or more dangerous than texting. Punishing the entire population due to the inability of some (I wouldn’t even say majority) of people to multi-task even remotely behind the wheel is stupid. It’s an attempt to increase revenue behind the facade of ‘safety’. Just like tint tickets and license plate tickets. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it :lol.
