Of course, we could also force people to install blinders on their cars, kind of like horses wear in a race so they aren't distracted by the crowd.
If that doesn't work, we could always try the mandatory burka, after all, it could save lives! Iran could have had this figured out all along and we are just behind the times.
I'm sorry this dimwit lost her life, but more sorry that many whom possess more advanced synapses (which is obvious because they're still alive to post and haven't caused a deadly accident by texting) figure they can solve the problem by instituting even more government regulation.
Guess what? It only works until the next problem is found!
Require basic, human normal smarts, and recognize that everyone makes mistakes. You can't and shouldn't regulate out of everything.

Yes... that's the same thing...
I'm glad you didn't resort to unnecessary exaggeration to make your point?
