It goes hand-in-hand with the "reckless endangerment" aspect of the law, which covers such things as, oh..... say you have a lot of poisonous cleaners and chemicals under your sink. No law against that is there? But if your kid gets into them and dies, can you get in some legal "deep shit" for it? Hell yes you can.

My point exactly. If a person is on their cell phone fucking around, swirving, cutting people off, etc...and a cop sees that person, they should get pulled over for "dangerous vehicle" or "reckless driving" or something along those lines...same as if they were looking for a CD and swirved.
There should not be a law against this (even though it's very dangerous). For those that do drive poorly while on cell phones, very stiff consequences and reprocutions should follow.
