Actually that was the point of my insurance agent when we discussed it. Sure texting is bad but the distraction comes more from the conversations on the phones than actually having them in your hand. So being able to talk hands free is really missing the point, not to mention tires. But yeah, texting, unless you can do it without looking at the phone, is a whole 'nother issue. The lobbyists won that one though and it all sounds good politically. Who can argue, just question the effectiveness to the stated goal.
