Some driver's are critical of the increased ticketing. They have said the tickets are a money grab and texting while driving does not affect their ability to drive.
To the contrary, according to a study, using advanced technologies such as a voice activated device in a car while driving does not eliminate the risk of danger.
The AAA Foundation for Traffic Safety conducted a comprehensive study related to mental distraction and driving motor skills. They found that there is a direct relationship to driving while distracted and the decrease in physical reaction time. As such, a person’s manual dexterity can be critically compromised. For example, the split second delay in reaction could cause an accident because of a driver’s inability to react in a timely fashion.
