Way more inept drivers today. The driving behavior of someone using a phone, is damn near the same as a drunk.... speed up, slow down, rolling through lights/stop signs, weaving in and out of lanes, abrupt stops.
I support this law because it allows LE to stop people and tell them to knock it off. One of the worst accidents I ever worked was related to someone being distracted by their cell phone.
Don't reckless driving laws already exist? Can they not be used to pull over such erratic drivers? Rolling through a stop sign is also already illegal, is it not?
Why does the *specific reason* for the erratic driving matter?
