I wouldn't get hot under the collar if the only injury (or worse) victims of texting + driving were the texters themselves.
Darwinian selection is a fine thing.
Sadly, texters run down innocent pedestrians & collide with other vehicles because they are distracted.
I saw a report recently that indicated mobile phones recovered in around 10% of fatal road incidents in the US revealed that the driving texter was doing so at the time of the crash.
