I totally agree with you. I guess this makes 2 of us at least. My opinion is that severe measures such as these are meant to get the point across. If they imposed a fine, many people will still take the chance because they know it is only a fine - nothing too serious. People who act accordingly and never use a mobile while driving have absolutely nothing to fear. It's like saying that jail time for robbery is a severe punishment (I know that's a stretch but bear with me for a second). If you never commit robbery, you never have to worry. That is my point - same goes for this situation. If you never commit such dangerous acts as using a cellphone while driving, you don't have anything to fear. For me, I couldn't care less what the punishment is because I know I will never get caught - because I will never do it. :wink:
