How about applying the cellphone law to everyone!?!?!? I can't believe how many distracted morons I see driving around using a cellphone without a headset or texting. I would love to see these people get pulled over and fined for their selfish stupidity.

I agree! No one, regardless of age, should be driving a 2 ton object at 70 mph and be doing anything but paying attention to the road. i would venture a guess and say that 95% of all calls and texts are absolutely trivial and meaningless.
It's bad enough when you are at a restaurant and are forced to be part of someone's inconsequential phone call. Or when you see a table full of people all staring blankly at their phones instead of interacting with each other.
Or when you see a father prop up a tablet in front of a 1 year old and then proceed to ignore the child.
Very sad.
