this law is an indication of our state sliding down the slope closer to becoming a police state. Why not just have a "driving while distracted" or "unsafe driving" law? We already have a wreckless driving law. Now with the texting ban law enforcement will more than likely spend their time peering into drivers windows to determine if they are texting which creates a whole new danger by taking their eyes off the road. Most of these new laws are a little overboard I think.
