The charge for driving while using a cell phone should in tandem with reckless endangerment. When I lived in Phoenix, I was crossing the street with my dog, at the crosswalk and with the light, when this person made a legal turn on the arrow. I could see her smiling, animated face as she blabbed away and as she came straight for me, I yelled "HEY" as loud as I could. She gave such a start that the phone flew right out of her hand and she slammed on the brakes about 3 feet in front of me. It's a good thing that I have self-control because I'm confident that personalities with less would have taken that phone and shoved it right down her throat. Enough said.
