seriously, the law is for simply holding a device. I remember a time when I would drive briskly thru downtown Seattle holding a bowl of fried rice, eating with the other hand, with chop sticks. point being, everyone has different skill level. Some people have horrible accidents w/o being drunk or holding a device.
while I've certainly been annoyed by texters, it's not the device that makes them idiots. This law presupposes that anyone holding a phone is an idiot who needs to be treated like a drunk behind the wheel? Lowest common denominator thinking.

If you can eat fried rice with chop sticks, then you are indeed on another skill level!!
