It's silly to impose laws that can't be enforced on the entire population based on a few worst case scenarios.
They do write tickets for careless operation, but there is no quantifiable evidence showing that it does anything to prevent people from doing it or that it's makes the roads any safer.
These laws just make people feel like they saved someone and goes warm fuzzies to those who support them. I feel the same way about implementing laws like this as I do about gun control after 20 people of the 300 million in our country are killed. Realistically, ticketing cell phone users will do nothing for our safety...
