Just what we need: another excuse for the cops to pull us over. This sh*t drives me crazy.

There are a few legislatures not on LSD that did think this through.
" They also argued that children, the radio, pets, hamburgers and sodas are all as likely to divert drivers' attention as cellphones.

Some Republican lawmakers criticized the bill, SB1613, as "nanny government."

"What's next — helmets while you're riding a horse? Airbags in the bathtub?" said Assemblyman Doug La Malfa (R-Richvale) during the Assembly floor debate last month."

And then we have Arnold viewpoint, " Public safety is the governor's No. 1 priority," said Schwarzenegger spokeswoman Margita Thompson,
Oh really? So whatever the govt. says, we should just accept because they just want to take care of us? How touching.

So basically the govt. can legislate how you wipe your ass--in the name of public safety.

"Scotty, beam me up."
