Driving with cell phones

[Strangler Lewis]

I suppose a lot of it is perception. There is speeding and following too closely, both of which are dangerous, but which we all accept. And there is speeding more, following more closely and weaving in and out of traffic, which we don't accept, makes us think "Asshole!" and which we want to see prosecuted.

I think somehow the pro-cell phone/texting folks have moved from the "Everything in life is risky" camp to, well, the other camp, because there's a tinge of the "I'm a law abiding citizen, and I should be able to do what I want" cant to their pitch which, among other things, begs the question.
