To not make a law against driving while texting or talking on the phone means it's OK to do so. Do sensible people really think those things are OK?
Texting and talking on a cell phone would still fall under the existing broader distracted driving laws in most jurisdictions. The safety advantage of a specific law though, assuming it's aggressively enforced, is that it allows LEOs to preemptively stop the texting/talking activity and cite the driver before an accident occurs if they observe it and the law makes it a primary offense. Lacking that, the only option generally is to include the distracted driving charge along with any other charges following an accident. Prevention is obviously preferable...
