The trouble today is that they grew up texting and then learned to drive. So driving is an activity added to their texting. Us older folks grew up driving and then we added cell phones so driving is our primary activity and we're less likely to feel comfortable using a cell phone while driving. Makes sense?
I had a teacher in public school said the same thing about drinking and driving. Kids learned to drive at 16 and then could buy beer at 18. So at 18 they didn't know how alcohol would affect them. His suggestion was to lower the drinking age to 14 so the kids could handle their alcohol before they learned to drive.
I don't think he's a teacher anymore...
