Is it just me or people don't have the mental capacity to operate a vehicle now a days when doing something else as well. I remember before this Law came into fruition there weren't many cases in regards to people being in accidents or dying because of the phone usage.

Personally, I drive a manual which makes it nearly impossible to text and drive. No power steering also means both hands on the wheel. No cup holders so I can't even drink while driving. Maybe if everyone drove cars like mine....

No your just an idiot and missed the irony in my post.

I am making fun of the stupid cops who sit at intersections and ticket hundreds of people glancing at their phone at a red light when they should be ticketing drivers who are actually driving and texting, or in this case taking selfies.

Sorry but my car is not going to spontaneously explode because I am texting while stopped at a red light. The worst that can happen is if your too retarded to multi task you might hold someone up for a second cause you didn't see the light change and that person gives you a honk and maybe gives you the finger. No harm done.

If anything police are making the problem worse because people will stop checking their phones at red lights and they will do it while driving because there is no way for a cop to catch them.

you can say the same thing about using the gps/infotainment system at a redlight

or back in the old days...when people whip out a map during a redlight

With automatics, it's just gas and go which leaves so much leeway for your hands to play around with things in your car.
