Cell phones and driving

So they want to ban talking on your phone while driving here, but don't worry 16 year olds you can still send text messages that require one hand sometimes two plus looking down at the phone. Take about dangerous, I can't believe the texting generation, it is ridiculous. It is getting a little out of control. I remember in high school I maybe sent one every couple of days or so, now even I send a few a day maybe. I can make a call and get a lot more accomplished in a shorter amount of time then going back and forth on text messages.

Lets get back to it though. Why ban talking on a cell phone, and possibly even using a hands-free devise or bluetooth but not do anything about texting or even email. I catch myself reading email while driving and responding and I know it is dangerous.

People writing these things need to take a look around, talking is not the problem texting and email is the problem.
