Do you think banning text messaging while driving is a good idea?

Yes I feel text messaging should be banned, I also think talking on cell phone should be banned also. If you see how crazy some people drive and they are on the phone. If it important let them pull over and stop to talk. I have had some very close call by others talking on the phone.

I agree with Joy, talking on a cell should be banned also. Back when we had that snow, I almost hit a woman driving 20 mph on a highway, talking on her cell. Texting while driving is even stupider, you cannot look at the road and the phone at the same time!

I agree with Joy - cell phone use should be banned other than hands free use. People are talking and paying no attention to their driving or traffic. Police will have difficulty enforcing a law such as this. That's why hands free would have to be left legal, although I would love to see all but emergency use of phones banned.

Texting seems to be even more dangerous than talking - both are hazardous -as are drivers with a dog in their lap with its head out the driver's window. Some people think they can't cause an accident.

Any cell phone usage while driving should be banned! If you MUST use the phone--pull off the road!!
