Cellphone drivers are equally impaired behind the wheel (distracted, disoriented, and handicapped by choice). And people use their cellphones 24-7-365. Drunk drivers tend to be out in higher percentages in the nighttime hours and especially during holidays and other “event” days (Superbowl, etc.).

Yet talk of prohibiting cellphone use while driving and some of those who support MADD suddenly get defensive.

Cellphone/drunk driving....same leftist control concept.

Demonize, then control.

I’ve used a cellphone safely for 15 years with no wrecks of any kind.

An old man who can’t see and drives 15mph too slow in the fast lane who’s never owned a cellphone is more dangerous.

Fight dangerous driving. These other people instead use driving stats as a tool to demonize a particular liberty.
