Distracted driving, which is anything from texting to eating a quick meal, has proven numerous times to be even more dangerous than being very tired or even drunk behind the wheel. While eating a sandwich on the road may never go away, reducing people's use of technology when they're behind the wheel can go a long way in protecting everyone out there.
