Maryland did this a while ago. I can't tell you how many cops Ive passed with their phones pressed up against their ears.
Mostly it just an excuse to pull people over.

When these laws go into effect there should be a measurable difference in the number of auto accidents.
So far I have not been able to find a source that shows significant changes im the numbers.
But the information does not paint a complete picture of the effects of the law. Authorities say it will be three to five years before data is comprehensive enough to analyze trends in highway safety.

Numbers don't lie.
