Good. Your right to freedom to do as you please ends where it causes you to risk my life.

If we spent a quarter of the resources we do hounding motorists on illegals, we wouldn’t have an immigration problem.

While I think texting and driving is stupid, proved a warrant and then you can examine my phone, officer.

This technology does not require access to your phone.

Talking on the phone while driving is also stupid. I refuse to answer my phone when I am driving and I won't make any phone calls. Texting is definitely out of the question.
I don't even turn my radio on.

They won’t be charging me with texting. I think it’s turned off on my phone. And how could I possibly text when I’m driving a stick-shift truck in traffic, drinking a beer and smoking? Some of us are just old-fashioned.

Good thing you can “text” without typing.

I’ve never texted and barely use my Walmart track phone, just have it for emergencies. Today I was behind a stupid female doing 25 in a 45 in her rice rocket while yapping on a cell phone. She crossed the center line twice and almost got clipped by a loaded logging truck. People like her are a menace.

On I 5 near Seattle the digital signs now read “Patrols are out for distracted drivers!”

When I am driving in Houston, I typically have the radio off, especially during rush hour. That is when my driving is in the tactical mode.

I text all the time while driving....local traffic, highway et al....
Never touch my phone....
Use the blue tooth from the car to the phone and just talk....simpler than a conversation. Responses are read to me....
Both hands on the wheel and eyes forward.... I never touch my phone while driving... text , unlike conversation can be paused if required...
To: USMCPOP
lol.
I used to drive my cab with my knees while I wrote down the pickup information.
maybe 25 years since last accident.

See, talking on the phone while driving is just as dangerous because it distracts.

So the state can search your home any time it pleases for a gun because it might be used to kill someone? This can be turned right back on you.
