No it won't. When you get an impared your car is impounded immediately for 24 hours even though you usually wait months to go through the legal process and found guilty. Without your car for that 24 hours you wouldn't be able to make it to the hospital or respond to a life/death situation in a quick manner. That law is not over nor will it ever be. Cell phones like cars are material objects and not essential devices. The courts are always going to point back at you for breaking the law in the first place. Again the simple solution is to not use your cell phone while driving. Anthing bad that comes out of it is on you and it's no different than driving under the influence of alcohol. You know the law and you know the punishment. You still break the law then you have nobody to blame but yourself.
The fact so many oppose this just goes to show how deep the problem is here as the only people that would have issues with this are the people that can't stop themselves from breaking this law.
