They need to put motion sensors in cell phones that would prevent texting while moving. Something needs to be done. We had a girl killed on the highway in front of us. She was a young mother, and the girl that hit her car head on was texting. She had been fined for reckless operation after a wreck 2 weeks prior.
She was texting then too. This time in addition to reckless operation, she will face vehicular homicide and could get 10 years. None of that will bring the young child's mother back.
I don't know how we grew up without cell phones. They are nice to have in an emergency when traveling but that is the only thing I would use one for and the car is always parked before I talk, and I have texting blocked. I can talk faster than I can type.
