people make stupid decisions all the time and some people are just bad drivers. the same people who pay more attention to their phone than the road will still be fumbling with CD's, Ipods, cigarettes, etc.

Cell phone bans are ridiculously unenforceable and just give the cops another reason to randomly pull people over. if someone blows a red light or is driving dangerously cite them for the driving, not an item they may or may not have been speaking into.

As first glance, this makes a lot of sense, but couldn't you also say the same thing for drinking and driving? That you should be able to drive drunk, and cops should only pull over those who are sloppy drivers?
