Even though every study shows that banning texting dramatically increases accidents ( www.google.com/search?q=texting+ban+more+accidents ), last Friday Indiana stupidly passed a new law banning texting. Its a lot harder to drive when you're trying to focus on a cellphone hidden down on your lap than when you hold it up on the stearing wheel so you can actually watch the road. The ban has no effect on the number of people texting, it just forces them to do it dangerously. Predictably, it didn't take long for Hoosiers to start crashing into things.
