Although police officers in all states have the right to stop anyone who is driving recklessly or inattentively, only a few states have laws regulating a driver’s use of mobile phones. Policymakers who are reluctant to enact such legislation point to the benefits of mobile phone use in emergencies. Most police officers would hesitate to ticket a person for helping in an emergency. Legislators also claim that such laws would be difficult to enforce. However, a police officer who can see a seat belt can also see people with phones stuck to their ears.
