The law sounds great, until they ban drinking, eating, smoking, catch you doing anything other than looking straight ahead (and you may think I am trying to blow smoke, but yeah they really have put that one on the table). If Sally sue or billy bob weren't texting to get in a wreck, it would have been fiddling with the radio or something else.
Now look at the bad (yes the bad), Police now get the right to pull you over and search your phone to prove you were texting. Call me crazy, but I have a problem with having your belongings searched without a really truly probable cause. Arizona is fighting what they will believe will be profile stopping, yet we just enacted a law that allows profile checks to no limit... the cop can just say he/she thought they were texting!
