What if I put my phone on speakerphone? Technically I'm not using my hands, hence hands-free.

i heard on a radio station back in the days that said listening to music is equally as distracting as talking on the phone, maybe the government should ban stereos too!!

tons of places already have laws like this.
i know korea has had the no cellphone rule since at least 2002.
we should consider ourselves lucky.
besides, how often are you gonna get busted for texting on your phone?
just say you were in the middle of making a call not texting if you get busted.
then you'll pay the $167 but wont get points for texting.

Finally! Ban these stupid mofos! There have been so many times that these ass-hat drivers almost hit me because they were paying more attention to talking than driving!
In a perfect world, we would be able to shoot people who use their phones while driving. |

I just have a feeling this new law is going to end up nailing the responsible drivers who CAN multitask within reason rather than the idiots who can barely drive to begin with let alone talk on a phone at the same time.
Personally the only time ill talk on my phone while driving is when their is little traffic and few traffic lights. Driving standard and talking on the phone can be tricky.
So how are the cops going to prove someone was texting and not checking the time or whatever? Do they get to invade our privacy and dig up records and check our phones? Personally I just see too many flaws, I have a feeling that if the cop wanted to be a dick he/she could slap the 3 points on there because they claim you were texting.
Who knows? I think banning N drivers from talking on the cell phone is a good idea, in your N time frame I think you really should be focusing on driving rather than multi tasking.

i think as long as the cell phone isnt occupying the driver's hands it'd be good to have this.
handsfree bluetooth units would be good.
