You realize that the police can impound your car if you break certain laws. I don't recall people being in an uproar about how that is unconstitutional so why a cell phone? People need to realize that driving is a priviledge not a right and all you need to do is abide by the laws of operating a motor vehicle and life is good but if you can't get off your cell phone while driving bad things are going to happen. You are either going to be ticketed, lose your phone for an amount of time, or worse get into a car accident injuring yourself and others. It's not a god givne right and if you are addicted to your phone, take public transit.
