Not gonna happen no way to prove it, unlike speeding where they have a speed detector to have physical proof you were speeding. unless that get a way to capture the driver texting on the road on camera there no creditibility to prove anything you get the he say she say ordeal.....so this will never be taken seriously

One of the ways it has been proven in the past is to match up the time of the accident to phone records

Not is they reasons to believe that it is the cause of a major accident especially if someone has died because of it they can get a warrant to check the records

they would need a warrenty to check that phone that's a invasion of privacy a drug dealer won a case that way b/c they search his phone to find out he was selling and where the next drop but didn't have a warrenty to check or something like that, phonearena post that article a couple of months back.

The PSAs and all the hoopla about texting, sexting, and texting while driving is totally overdone. I am disgusted. With so many other issues the government Federal, State, Local could be working on...this is an offical WTF moment! I would go as far to say millions of tax dollars are being wasted with lawmakers across the country wasting their time debating sexting, texting, and texting while driving. As well as all the ads. Its good to look out for the safety of others and for people to be responsible...but this is driving me crazy. There have been studies done that text bans along with red light ticket cameras do not curb the amount of accidents that happen annually. With out getting too political on phone arena. . .how about our government get back to governing. . .and that doesnt mean making laws and spending tax payer money for the sake of. Let nature sort out the responsible people from the irresponsible. . .evolution, population control, survival of the fitist! and yes the fitist can talk, text, email, twitter, myspace, facebook, gps, etc and operate a motor vehicle at the same time!

Pretty soon we will lose another right in your car! This is a joke! Next they will be ripping radios out of cars and telling people they cannot talk to anyone on the car, or we will all travel alone.
