Because most people are imbeciles.
I have told all of my family and friends not to text me EVER under any circumstances.
Clears up lots of confusion, the telephone is a great way to communicate.
LOL..won't matter here in Texas,unless they convert to a "Big Foot" Fleet.
In Cal they have racks for their surfboards
With a late model Iphone and blue tooth enabled vehicle, texting is hands free these days. Its a ton safer..
In Minnesota, we already had a ‘distracted/inattentive driving’ statute, but they passed a texting law anyway.
“More laws are better laws” if you’re a legislator.
I read somewhere the most dangerous time to be riding a motorcycle is Friday during the school year, beween 2 and 6 pm .(all the kiddies are texting their weekend plans)
If your car engine is on it should automaticlly disable the texting function. Talking on the phone is much safer, at least the driver is watching the road, not looking down.
